STS means "Space Transportation System" and the numbers are the amounts of flights.
The reason was that a couple of months before the mission was going to be launched, the Hubble camera crapped out. It put their service mission schedule up the creek.
So they had to delay servicing it, to work out what repairs they had to do.
Hence why they are mixed up.
