When you add a group that requires a number of posts the users must make at least one more post to be added to that group. Even if they currently have 1000 posts.
It it the actual process of the post that will compare the user post count to determine if they need to be added to a group.

I never tried this, But the rebuilder in the control panel may add the remaining 558 members for you but read the note:

Rebuild Post Counts

Select this option if you want the user's post count to reflect his current number of posts, and not how many he has ever made.
WARNING: There is no undoing this once this is clicked.

This warning is for if say a user shows 1000 posts but 20 were deleted over the years.
They would now show 980 posts.
