From the ls -l output that you sent me:

cat ls|awk '{print $5"+"}'|tr -d '\n'|sed 's/+$/\n/'|bc
3488542

So your filesystem has lost 0,7MB somehow. Are there any hidden files
(ls -la)? If not, then I can think of two things:

1) There's a large file (or more) that have already been deleted, but
some process (stuck maybe?) still keeps them open. But if you've
rebooted since, this can't be the case.

2) Your filesystem has messed up something.
