My guess is that your fingers triggered a "replace all" (bad fingers,
bad!), and the message was informing you of how many replacements were
made. 

My sympathies and best wishes for finding and undoing the changes. But
look on the bright side -- at least it didn't say "643 changes have been
made." :-)
