If your source for that information is the display from 'About this Mac', be advised that there is a bug in the program that produces it and that the information in that display can not be relied upon for accuracy. Some times a Spotlight reindex will correct it:

For accurate information download from the Internet OmniDiskSweeper and Grand Perspective (both free) and open them. They will show all of your files and the respective sizes.
