<step> is the spacing between <min> and <max>. <extrapolate.points> is
the number of point, starting from <min> and <max> respectively used
to calculate the average slot used for the extrapolation.  Something
like <min>+<points>*<step>.

You can find the details here:

There are connected as the extrapolation starts at <min> (and <max>).
<min> and <max> basically defines the range, where IBI or some other
method is performed. If you increase the range too much, you risk to
reach areas with poor sampling, i.e. some iteration there is a hit,
some  iteration there isn't and that will screw up the update as for
e.g. IBI.
