The code is in admin/register.php in your Moodle ... it's a simple count of the records in the course table (minus 1). These records are deleted when courses are deleted, so it's a fairly true indication of the number of courses on a site (at the time they last registered).
However many of the courses may be hidden from view by the general public (eg they could be archives or private courses etc)
