The number of nodes in the final .msh file depends on the Physical group 
definitions. (What is reported in the Statistics window is the raw number of 
nodes.)

I don't see any gaps in your mesh; beware that the surfaces of the interior 
sphere are not oriented in a coherent way, which could lead to problems in a 
BEM code.

(The mesh of the outer shell is also quite strange.)
