Actually the reserved space can be set to any value (5% is the default in case
you do not specify one an filesystem creation)

To see the actual number of reserved block you may try for example dumpe2fs:

# dumpe2fs -h /dev/sda2|grep Reserved
dumpe2fs 1.38 (30-Jun-2005)
Reserved block count:     192860
Reserved blocks uid:      0 (user root)
Reserved blocks gid:      0 (group root)
