It would have been nice to post the answer - unread items - it is a

Couldn't have been the unread items count or it would have been in
parentheses, not brackets. It must have been the total count that was
selected.

That depends on where you are in the world.

Americans tend to differentiate between parenthesis and brackets, the
British call them all brackets, defining the type as round brackets,
curly brackets etc. So the OP may have meant parentheses. I do not
know what our antipodean friends do in this case.
