Are you manually logging the exercise for the same time period when you were on the treadmill?  Whatever you manually log will overwrite whatever the fitbit actually recorded.  But if you manually logged it for a different time, the steps would be in there twice.

Before posting, re-read to see if it would make sense to someone else not looking at your Fitbit or phone.
