It does, indeed, appear to be the case.  :/  This is extremely confusing.  If I
am getting confused, I can't imagine patrons are doing any better with this. 
I'm not sure how much of the information on that line in the results is helpful
to patrons.  At least for US public library patrons, patrons would want to know
how many copies there are, how many are available (and MAYBE where), and how
many holds are on the item.  I doubt they care about how many items are in
transit, or how many are waiting for people.  Frankly, I would ditch the
transit info and change the holds to total holds.
