No, the "couple hundred thou" is a net gain. The thing is a lot of the people who found jobs recently were people who had been out of work for so long that they weren't part of the statistic any more. Now they're coming back into the job market(looking fro work) because things are moving in the right direction. It caused a little statistical weirdness (an increase in the rate from 9.7% to 9.9%).
