du counts disk space used at a block level and not accurately counted
bytes. There is a -b parameter which gives the more realistic apparent
size of files.

Also du doesn't by default count hidden files. 

You're also counting /proc and /dev which aren't really directories with
files in on disk.

Cheers,
Al.
