You said you added one PO4 to the coordinate file, but then added two to the 
topology.  Hence the difference of exactly 5 atoms, or one PO4 molecule.

The content of the coordinate file must always match the content of the 
topology, with respect to the number of atoms (based on the listing of 
molecules) and the order in which they appear in the [molecules] directive.
