For example, the province of Rovigo has one number (–4533) in Table 2 in the English-language full edition; there are nine subdivisions listed under this number (representing parts of Rovigo province) in the Italian translation of the full edition.
In other words, local translations have different requirements - the English version may be content with providing geographical categories for Italy up to the level of a province, but people in Italy may be interested in having categories for subdivisions of provinces.
For non library folks: “literary warrant” just means that, if you have a lot of books about a subdivision of a province in Italy, you should probably have that subdivision as a category, so people can find those books.
