BUG: Mentally-retardedly high town population

It kind of has 4,294,967,213 people living there (or 4 billion, 294 million, 967 thousand and 213). Which is a tad unrealistic. Particularly as it doesn't take up the whole map. I have TTRS3.2, as well as LV4, new terrain/water, and alpine climate. (yes, I do have 1.6 billion pounds)
EDIT: now it has 5 people. Me is confuddled.

Which OpenTTD version are you using? Is it an official version, or is it something like ChrisIN? I know this has been reported in ChrisIN games before, but I don't think it's ever been reproduced in the nightlies.

I would guess the population went to 5 because of an integer overflow. 4,294,967,295 is the largest number that can be stored in a 32bit unsigned integer.
