These two numbers count different things and rarely match. The first is how often the back-of-book indexes the books themselves print point at this place; an indexer chose those. The second is how often the name occurs in the transcript text, counted by machine. More on the difference.

This place has not been given a coordinate. It appears here because the narrators named it; where it stood is not established.
