Why does running statistics on an attribute field give me the wrong COUNT?

I am working on a land suitability analysis in ArcGIS Pro. I wanted to find out the total count of the are that I am working in. I was very exciting to see that when I right click on the Count field in the attribute table, the statistics option is back. I ran the statistics on the field, however when I went to look at them the total count that was calculated is WAY larger than what is possible for the area. Is this issue happening for anyone else? Does anyone have suggestions how to fix this? 


For reference the largest number I have is 151941, the second largest number I have is 58608 and they are increasingly smaller from there. There is no way these numbers could sum to a total of 850924
