URL: https://github.com/apache/apisix/issues/6569
### Issue description
We activated the Prometheus plugin and when we saw the metrics about the
Nginx connections, the total connections shows a strange value:
```
# HELP apisix_nginx_http_current_connections Number of HTTP connections
# TYPE apisix_nginx_http_current_connections gauge
apisix_nginx_http_current_connections{state="accepted"} 16997
apisix_nginx_http_current_connections{state="active"} 3
apisix_nginx_http_current_connections{state="handled"} 16997
apisix_nginx_http_current_connections{state="reading"} 0
apisix_nginx_http_current_connections{state="total"} 5108 «««««««««««« is
this value correct?
apisix_nginx_http_current_connections{state="waiting"} 2
apisix_nginx_http_current_connections{state="writing"} 1
```
**Is the value of `apisix_nginx_http_current_connections{state="total"}`
correct? This because it has a lower value than the others**
I tried to check the documentation, but I didn't find so much information
about the metrics exposed.
Thank you for checking this
### Environment
- apisix version (cmd: `apisix version`): 2.12.0
