The 545 number is the total number of items in your backlog.

You can (and should) be ranking the issues in your backlog from most important to least important.

The show "100 issues" or "500 issues" options then reduces your viewing of the 545  issues to the selection. So show 500 issues means: of the 545 issues in your backlog, it is only showing the top 500 issues.

If you want the 545 number to match the 500 number, your much remove 45 issues from your backlog (by deleting, closing, or moving them to a new project)
