The second and third numbers give the number of states and transitions of the automaton produced by Spot (with formula simplifications and SCC simplifications turned on), while the fourth and fifth number show the number of states and transitions with an additional WDBA minimization step. When counting transitions, we are actually counting the number of "sub-transitions". That is, on an automaton defined over two atomic properties "p" and "q", a transition labelled by "p" actually stands for two sub-transitions labelled by "p&q" and "p&!q". So we are counting it as two transitions. You can observe that some minimized automata have more transitions: this is because their structure changed when they where determinized. Even though they have the same number of states as the non-minimized automaton, the states do not accept the same language. There is even one case (formula 36) where the minimized automaton got one more state. In two cases (formulae 31 and 35) the minimization actually removed states in addition to making the automata deterministic.
