Are you sending 64 byte packets? There are no 4 bytes of CRC on virtual
interfaces, so 60 bytes per packet is OK.

Are the packets multicast or broadcast?
It looks like one of the counters there is wrong.

No packet should be counted twice - it must be put into one bucket of mutli, 
broad or unicast.
