Car buying history check reveals >100k miles in 8 days. How possible?

Hi I got one of those vehicle history reports for a van I am considering buying from a private seller. It shows that the mileage jumped over 100,000 miles between two title and registration events that were only 8 days apart.
Specifically it shows the following in the vehicle history:
Nov 16, 2021 OH 59,146 mi Title and Registration
Nov 24, 2021 OH 191,171 mi Title and Registration
What is going on here and how could that possibly happen?

If someone bought it cheap after an accident, why would they intentionally increase the odometer mileage?
Or they bought a used odometer ... I don't know.
How many miles do they say it has on it now?
If it's 191K, then I'd believe them.
