Hi homboy27
Generally speaking the usage metric report in power bi is not always accurate due to many factors.

In your case you will need to delete the dataset attached to that report a generate a new one.
All said for better usage metric reporting it is recommended to create your own Audit Log Report using Rest APIs and that could exceed last 90 days of data activities. here is an example

Creating your own audit log report is a bit long process but once it has been put in place it would last for ever. For it you need a machine or server where to extract and store the metadata in CSV or JSON format using Power BI Rest APIs and then build you report.
Here is some videos that could help understand how to build it
