Screenshot of the progress notification showing the exponential number representation

SUMMARY

When transferring large batches (over 1,000,000) of files in Dolphin, in the transfer progress notification, in the Show Details section, the file count switches to an exponential representation of the number when it should remain in a natural format.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Transfer large quantity of files using Dolphin
2. Show Details in the progress notification
3. Observe strange representation once the count reaches a certain threshold

OBSERVED RESULT

File count switches to exponential representation after reaching a certain threshold.

EXPECTED RESULT

File count should remain in natural format.

Can confirm, just happened to me with Dolphin 23.08.5. Only affects the current count, not the total. Looks like the wrong format is used and it wasn't tested with 7-digit file counts.

The transfer is being done via NFS; my system (and KDE) locale is C.UTF-8.
