Thruthfully in the anime, the last couple of slashes were multiplied a couple of times for added effect and the overall combo was extended to cover screentime. Maybe it would make more sence from a practical standpoint to assume the game registers 16 hits, albeit not visually, for balance and astetic purposes.
