Surprising that it didn't find errors since you ran it on a mounted fs!

That's also an older e2fsck, so I suppose it's possible that it missed

No, that didn't report any errors.

If you unmount it and do it w/o -n, it should clear the error state.
Perhaps it encountered an error for a file that got subsequently deleted,
or something - not sure.
