No, that's not the same thing. The pre-4.4 firmware counted rows for the "Book finished" event in the Event table. These rows were not removed if you removed a book. The 4.4 firmware counts the number of books that have the status "Finished". If you remove a book, this number drops. This calculation is used for both the count of finished books, and the percent finished.

As I said earlier, the calculation has changed a couple of times. And at some point the percent finished was from the book status (4.4 method) and the books finished from the event (pre-4.3 method).
