MilesToGoBeforeISleep,
for the calculation of mileage flown it will be the starting and endpoint of the flight you take, in your case IAD-GIG even if the flight stops in GRU - unless you would ticket IAD-GRU-GIG, which could yield more mileage in your FFP - but cost you segment coupon extra assuming that the carrier you fly has the right to selling TIX to PAX from GRU - GIG only.

Cheers

Thomas
