It sounds like a copied thread increased your post count, however, sometimes counters on the site are recalculated and updated via a cron job that runs every few weeks.

Well, you could google it, but all it means is there's a regularly scheduled process that runs.

cron is a unix command that one uses to schedule an executable to run at some future designated time.
