what is cdrecord doing?

I used cdrecord to burn a DVD.
It seems to have worked, but the output confuses me.
The last line is:
Track 01: Total bytes read/written: 399360/614400 (300 sectors).

When I've done CD's the read/written
numbers were usually exactly the same.
They were never that different.
What is going on?   Why the big difference?

I'm running FC5.
The entire output follows, there is some wraparound:
