Programs can add up their quota until the final time of ROL submission, (but cannot reduce). This can be due to many reasons:

They did not fill up in the AOA match (in dual accredited programs) and decided to put the vacant seats in the NRMP match
Previously prematched applicants (who have not yet withdrawn) have decided to go to match etc..

Relax...you have 2 more pos opening up for you..
