You state:
"Run a long listing with the option -l to get more information:
tiger12:~ norburym$ ls -l /Volumes
total 72
drwxrwxrwx 1 norburym norburym 16384 May 29 13:13 BIG TIKI

Total 72 gives me the amount of storage in blocks (each block is 1024 bytes) used by all the items in /Volumes."
Are you hiding other things in /Volumes? When I issue ls -al /Volumes, it only shows this:
~ baltwo$ ls -al /Volumes/
total 8

I.e., the count is 8, which reflects the eight volumes resident within /Volumes.

If you total the sizes of your volumes (not hidden), you'll get 8.
