Cause it is calculated as the sum ofall shared memory pages. 1.2.x Kernels has listed there the amount of memory used more then once.
This means: 2k are used 3 times and 4k are used 2 times. with older kernels you will get 2k+4k shared, with newer you will get 2k*3+4k*2 shared. Of yourse the ratio of both numbers would be interesting, too :)
