There is a joke here that I’m missing. Does anyone understand what it is?

In the TV show "The Orville" a character has their matter replicator create "500 cigarettes", but it only created 463 after someone counted them all. This is a meme that's been making the rounds for a few weeks in some circles now.
Ah, so that's the origin of that meme TIL, thanks
Thanks!
