Correct, it is not about update timing. PID number 100,000 has already been issued. Due to incorrect or duplicate entries being deleted or merged with the correct one, there aren't 100,000 unique entries listed in the database yet. PIDs are a primary key in the database, so they can never be duplicated, reused or reassigned without the potential for causing problems in existing records.
