I assume it's because the file had to be resent.  This can happen if the
resulting file on the receiving side didn't generate the right checksum
the first time it was sent.  Rsync adjusts the block size (to work
around any erroneous block-checksum matches that might have affected the
first transfer) and tries the transfer again.
