Bgwriter and pg_stat_bgwriter.buffers_clean aspects

Hello.

I am trying to tune PostgreSQL write parameters to make writing operation
fast on a heavy-loaded database (a lot of inserts/updates).
After resetting the pg_stat_bgwriter statistics (I do it by deleting
global/pgstat.stat file and restarting PostgreSQL) I monitor the following:

# select * from pg_stat_bgwriter;
checkpoints_timed | checkpoints_req | buffers_checkpoint | buffers_clean |
maxwritten_clean | buffers_backend | buffers_alloc
-------------------+-----------------+--------------------+---------------+------------------+-----------------+---------------
0 | 0 | 0 | 0
| 0 | 164 | 6653

So, you see that just after resetting the statistics we have a large value
in buffers_backend. Why?
Documentation:

says that "buffers_backend
