My question is more like if there is any specific reason, or did you just start from bottom?
What perhaps happened is: the output of
curl is "counting upwards" like
scp,
yum and a lot of other tools. They do this by not sending a line break at the end of the line but a simple "carriage return" without a line feed, so they are overwriting one and the same line over and over again. For a log file this is just one long line and the updated numbers are different fields. If you do a longer download you will probably find the different fields over and over again,as they are updated during the download every seond or something such.
Try using "tr" to revert the carriage returns to real nextline characters and you have lines which should be fairly easy to parse.
I hope this helps.
