statgen giving same result regardless of list

[mrt0mat0]

I'm using two different password lists to generate hcstat files: rockyou and the linkedin passwords. now, linked in has the keyword "link" more times than any other word, but regardless of that, i get the same stats as rockyou. Also, I noticed the process seems almost too fast to actually go through every line. if i do a length of 4 i always get "mari" first on both lists, telling me that either i'm doing something wrong or something isn't working right. any advice?

Code:

hcstatgen.bin linked.hcstat < linkedin.txt

Code:

sp64.bin --pw-min=4 --pw-max=4 --threshold 5 linked.hcstat | more

I've tested with different thresholds but still get the same result. i grep my lists to confirm, but it shows link is a more common keyword
