All page numbering on ereaders is like that. Depending on what size font you use, you could change a 100-page book into 1000 pages. The reader will still see and count only 100 pages (as it should) and will break up your reading screens into smaller sections of each page. Pages are probably counted by xxx words = 1 page.
So that's why you can change pages and still be on page 1 for 3 page flips (or 10 page flips, again depending on your font size). I much prefer the current system and to not inflate the book's pages artificially to 10x what it really is.
There is an option in settings to turn on a slightly different page numbering system, where it shows the page numbers in the margin. I never use it because it always places it on top of text and is annoying to me. The numbers might be slightly different than the page number shown at the bottom, but it will be close.
