lynx is counting 4 pages of display.  But that's not the same as a webpage.

The navigation links on this page are using a different count - they're
referring to different webpages rather than pages of display.
 
It's easy to see this by viewing the page's html (by pressing a backslash
in lynx to toggle source-view).  The links that show up in lynx like this:

   |< 
   [first page] <
   [previous page] Page 1 of 1 >
   [next page] >| 
   [last page]

all point to "threads.html", which is the page you're looking at.
