I have tried to rephrase this. Hopefully less confusing

 A statistics session refers to the time period when statement
statistics are gathered by
statistics collector. A statistics session persists across normal
shutdowns. Whenever statistics are reset like during a crash or upgrade, a new
statistics session starts. The query_id value generation is linked to
statistics session to
emphasize that whenever statistics are reset,the query_id for the same
queries will also change.
