I don't see how the number on the CF card controls the numbering of
the image. I think the 20D keeps track and unless manually set to
zero the sequence will continue from card to card.
I had a card that had 137CANON on it and removed it to keep a shoot
separate and put in a freshly formatted card. The 137 counter was
IMG_ 3782. After the shoot I put the original card in the 20D and
shot some other stuff. The "folders" on the original card are now
137CANON and 138CANON the 138CANON folder starts at IMG_3855.
If the card was the boss, every time a freshly formatted was inserted
the counter would reset according to the way I understand what I've
read. If the card controls the numbering how is what happened here
explained?

Because your 2nd card has lower numbers on it. If you took a card from
my camera, which is up to much higher than that, and put it in your
camera it would start at that number. You can reset the count to 0 using
the menu options or by leaving the camera with no batteries for a long
time, one of which must be what has happened on your camera.
