DL may have updated thier tables. I say this becuase I noticed it on another route. Just depending on what part of the airport the measurement is done at can cause a change.
You made a lot of assumptions in that post. I said miles. Miles could be RDMs or MQMs. You chose the former. Also, I've been DM forever so I get 11X. And, FYI, I read the below, checked past flights, and posted here.

Aircraft: Airbus A320
Flight Time: 3HR 1M
On Time % : 97
Miles Flown: 1,296

Most of my flights to LAS generate somewhere between 5500 and 8500 RDMs plus the obligatory 2500 RDMs for Bags on Time. But, they always generate 2600 or 3900 MQMs RT depending on class flown.
