You'll note the ratio between then is almost exactly 2. Some utilities report space usage in 512-byte block, some in K. I would hazard a guess that 'ls -s'is reporting in blocks, not K.
No, that is just a coincidence. The actual issue was duplicated messages referencing the same inode. `du` does the tally by inodes, while `ls` does the tally by files, so two files referencing the same inode would be counted twice.
