I clicked and it said 306 views. How could this only have 306 views?

I clicked it sometime around 6:00 EDT - 306 views. Again some 10 minutes later to show my husband the video, again 306 views. Just now at 8:17 EDT, again 306 views. Something isn't right with their counter - should we be surprised?

I think 306 views is where YouTube stops counting until it validates the views are authentic, to prevent automatic views to inflate view count.
