Salut, the total hosts doesn't mean much. It only indicates known hosts very near you (UP + leaves). There is at any moment more than 1.2 millions LW...
The number under the Nb. colum indicates the known sources for one file. The total is composed of the hosts that send you the search results + the alternative hosts that are known to have the file. Remember that you don't search all the network so the number indicates more the popularity of a file (availability) than an accurate number of known sources. It is a lot likely that there are more hosts that have the file on Gnutella.

Ciao
