Discrepancies between "df" and "du" outputs

Hello Managers,

On a Production V240 running Solaris 9 I came across the following:

[itl-app2]/app1$ df
<snip>
/dev/md/dsk/d116 7.0G 6.4G 555M 93% /app1

[itl-app2]/app1$ du -sk .
1432714 .

Am I missing something here or is there a reason why df reports 6.4Gb while
du only reports 1.4Gb?
And more important, how do I get those missing 5Gb back in df?

Thanks in advance for your help

Loris
