This is in the FAQ:
,----[ Question 4.12: ]
|
| The number of total messages in a group which Gnus displays in group
| buffer is by far to high, especially in mail groups. Is this a bug?
|
| Answer:
|
| No, that's a matter of design of Gnus, fixing this would mean
| reimplementation of major parts of Gnus' back ends. Gnus thinks
| "highest-article-number - lowest-article-number =
| total-number-of-articles". This works OK for Usenet groups, but if you
| delete and move many messages in mail groups, this fails. To cure the
| symptom, enter the group via `C-u RET' (this makes Gnus get all
| messages), then hit `M P b' to mark all messages and then say `B m
| name.of.group' to move all messages to the group they have been in
| before, they get new message numbers in this process and the count is
| right again (until you delete and move your mail to other groups
| again).

Alternatively you can run:
`M-x nnml-generate-nov-databases RET':
,----[ (info "(gnus)Mail Spool") ]
| If your `nnml' groups and NOV files get totally out of whack, you
| can do a complete update by typing `M-x nnml-generate-nov-databases'.
| This command will trawl through the entire `nnml' hierarchy, looking at
| each and every article, so it might take a while to complete. A better
| interface to this functionality can be found in the server buffer
| (*note Server Commands::).
