I think what you mean is "the wrong numbers for the atoms" not "the wrong
number of atoms" -- there are still the proper number of atoms.
In Jmol after you delete atoms, you will see gaps in the atom numbering. The
numbers should be thought of as labels that identify
atoms based on  "atomno" so, for example,

select atomno=17

will work just fine in your case.

So it's not a bug.
