AFAIK, everyone sees all the numbers, in this case the 85 reviews. You see the text of reviews in your language. There are currently 15 reviews that have text. One is in Portuguese, one in Spanish, one in German, with the remaining 12 in English.

if it is only 85 worldwide then you need only a few "helpers" to install & award 5 stars, to kick that average up past 4.0 ,if that's your goal.
I should be able to do the math on that mentally , but am not feeling quite bright enough

85x3.6 + nx5 = 4x(85+n) solve for n & round up ?
The equation is correct, assuming all new reviews are 5 star. The value for 'n' is perhaps larger than you are estimating. The solution:
Quote:
85x3.6 + 5n = 4(85+n)
306 + 5n = 340 + 4n
5n - 4n = 340 - 306
n = 34
