Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

You are using the calculator on the Strava plug-in: Veloviewer? That only counts 25 activities unless you pay for the Veloviewer subscription. Try the calculator on swinny.net, which will link to your Strava account and look at all your data.

btw, the Swinny site doesn't work for me on Chrome, but it does on Safari.

It seems that the Swinny.net site also has a "Climbing Number". Mine is 1101. i.e., 1101 rides with more than 1101 feet of climbing. That's not very impressive, but alas, I live in the midwest. Anybody living in on the west coast or in New England would easily get a much greater number.
