The number of columns and lines has changed. Did the Vim window
actually change size? It would have gotten more than twice as wide.
Or the font has changed to a much smaller one.

Actually that is my doing. I had (as I usually do) start a session with just one window enough to display one file. So the 258 size is a result of my widening the vim window to make room for multiple windows (files). 

You can try resizing it, e.g. by grabbing the left or right size and
dragging it just enough to make the window one character wider or
smaller. Then check if the 'columns' and 'lines' options did change.

I did as you asked and answer is yes columns option did change by just one character increase.
