Are Power Query statistics accurate?

I am manually filtering on multiple criteria to to double check my dax calculations. I have noticed that they are consistently off by around 30 entries when I filter by two criteria and by 1 entry when I filter by 1.  My first inclination is to blame my dax but I'm only using a Count function on the same column.

 

Power Query returns 39497

While the dax formula Count('Table'[Column]) returns 39496

 

Anyone have any ideas?

 

Thanks for the help

Hi @Anonymous ,

 

This may caused by your data source. Some similar situations for reference:

losing lines between Power Query and report;

More rows than filtered in Power query.
