Because mining a valid block has a random element to it, the best you can do is estimate how many shares it will take until you find one. There is always going to be some variance between the estimated and actual amount. In this case, your pool has been somewhat "unlucky" in that it has taken more shares/time than the estimate (which is based on the current difficulty) predicted.
