I downloaded that and it shows the correct size.

I didn't understand why du is showing results like this:

anand at jungle:/tmp$ du -b la-brea-tar-pits-address.jpg
123762	la-brea-tar-pits-address.jpg
anand at jungle:/tmp$ du --si la-brea-tar-pits-address.jpg
132k	la-brea-tar-pits-address.jpg
anand at jungle:/tmp$ du -sk la-brea-tar-pits-address.jpg
