Too many files reported in ADVFS-Fileset

Hello Dear Managers

I have got a very strange problem. On our production 2 Node Tru-Cluster
Server with Tru64unix v. 5.1a we have got mounted several Data-Filesets
from 3 ADVFS-Domains.

In each Domain we have got several filesets. Some Filesystems have got
Filesystem-quota for max. no. of blocks and files a them. And on some
Filesets we have got User und Group quotas enabled.

So the error happend this morning when several / but not all Filesets
on 2 of our ADVFS-Domains listed a astronomical high number of
files in the Filesets .

A verify -a brings no healing to this, and this is our production cluster
so unmounting the domain and remounting is no real alternative.

Last night we run an quotacheck -av.
Not all filesets with these strange behaviour have got user and
groupquotas enabled.

So my question: How to get rid of this strange behaviour ?
                 Why is this happening ??
                Is this a first hint for further errors in the
filedomain??

Addendum:

a showfsets -qk name-of-domain lists:

as you can sevaral - but NOT all - Filesets have astronomical high number
of files listed.

If you do i.e. an repquota domain#fset1 you get:
