I'm guessing that those dashes are 'minus' signs, and that it's 4 months minus the days, hours, minutes, and seconds. At first I was confused, because I thought it was counting up.
Also, I have the same "issue" with the scrollbar popping in for when the wider numbers are shown (I'm looking at you, 44). Probably just needs to be a little wider than 960 pixels (at least that's how wide the panel is in Chrome at 1920x1080).
