Yes, that is another option. In Spanish, 'en' means in or on, depending on context. A lot is possible with these little words, and types of texts are certainly imaginable where a token count could be inflated that way.

Add to that the fact that in those days spelling was often more phonetic, so there would be less artificial differences like 'of' versus 'off' in English , another factor influencing token count.
