Because a lot of people don't clear every message, and some services like to organize email into categories where it's not critical to clear your inbox. And the phone just lumps that all into one big number as seen in the screenshot of this post.

Ah, ok, i guess i just use them differently. I always instantly unsubscribe out of everything I don’t want on my main emails and only keep the notifications on for the inboxes I want, so my ”trash” emails don’t show up on the number.
