Can anyone explain me why the bridge/gateway/restore/router images have different file sizes?

When i wipe my shield, i copy the restore image (1.51SP1) over the bridge/router/gateway.
Without (!) using the router/gateway images, I see the following sizes later on:

drwxr-xr-x    5 root     root         12288 Dec 31  1969 . 
drwxrwxrwt   16 root     root           460 Apr 16 11:54 ..

BTW, this is a size table from Breda - exactly matching mine.
