Define a "transaction".
Was MacBook Air's trx, which had received six confirmations, a transaction? It was, by my definition. It isn't included in that 1,000.000,000 count.
There could have been many more like these, back in the day, before bitcoin had any value of significance.
Just look at your node and count the transactions

Formal, Transaction: an exchange or transfer of goods, services, or funds.
Accounting, Transaction: any business activity that results in a direct effect on the financial status and financial statements of the business.
This is just one of many. Probably shouldn’t think too much about it, it’s just a fun look into the numbers we have.
