Why are most of the surnames in my tree listed as missing?

Looking at the Statistics charts, under "Most Common Surnames" there are only 4.  When I went to the statistics, it says I have 280 profiles with missing surnames.

This is completely untrue, the majority of my profiles have surnames with maiden & married for females.

I am then presented with a chart containing the profiles with missing surnames & most of the surnames are listed under "Birth Surname". Above that is a field marked "Last Name" which in all profiles is blank.   I am puzzled by this as surely the birth surname, particularly for men, should be in the statistics as a surname.   Can anyone explain this crazy situation to me?
