The number of tokens depends on context; if you just entered 'egregious' it will have broken it into three tokens, but with the whole query it's one.

Why three tokens, not one?

without the leading space, it is not common enough as a word to have become a token in its own right. Like the vast majority of lowercase words, in OpenAIs tokenizer you need to start " egregious" with a space character for the single token.
