Not to speak for Holger (but I gonna anyways), but I believe he is
chastising you for not either thinking through what the differences
are or doing any research on your own.  He may also be teasing you
about the form of your question by answering just what you asked:

Q: Does anyone know?
A: Yes

Asked and answered.  What you were really looking for was:

Q: Please explain to me the difference between the two number?
A: The file structure under  backuppc has little resemblance to the
file structure of the original system.  For each directory, there is
essentially a file with the directory information as it appears on the
original system (to handle permissions and such).  This will cause the
numbers to differ across multiple directories.  There may be more
reasons, but the question seems so arbitrary and pointless I dont care
to put a lot of effort into getting a definitive answer.  Maybe if you
have a good reason why you care why the numbers are different I might
be more interested.
