When I sent my D600 in under service advisory to replace the shutter mechanism, it had over 9000 shutter counts. When I got the camera back, it showed much less shutter count - either around 1000 or 2000 - I don't remember the exact count. Asked Nikon about this but got no straight answer from them. At least I know that the shutter count number can be changed - how? I do not know.
At least, the new shutter mechanism works great. Only need cleaning every couple of thousand shuts.
Interesting. They repaired two D600's for me, and in each case the shutter count was higher when I got them back.
