WTF Surface Pro4, have you gone mad?

I bought my S4 in December and since then I've used it lightly, charging it maybe once every 2 to 3 days.
Yesterday, I discovered that you could do a battery stats report using the command line and powercfg so I thought I'd have a go!
It all went well until I opened the report and saw that my battery cycle count was 261!
Considering that the tablet is only 7 months old and been charged once every few days, that seems a little excessive! In addition to this, there appears to be no data before the 18th of this month, in the Usage History and Battery Capacity sections of the report.
I'm pretty sure that a new firmware was installed round about that time but other than that, nothing out of the ordinary has happened.
Can anyone shed some light on these crazy figures?
