About text a bit misleading regarding postal code amount for Germany

[k00ni]

About text of this repo says:

Collection of postal codes in different formats, ready for importing. Germany (16481 total) [...]

But after reading CSV file into a DB which has a table for each type of entity (e.g. city, postal_code, community, state, etc.) I come to the following values for Germany:

• 14.584 cities
• 7.150 postal codes
• 411 rural districts (communities?)

Some postal codes are used multiple times, like 04720 for Döbeln and 5 other cities (including Großweitzschen).

I'd say 16481 postal codes is a bit misleading and may confuse people who want to check correctness of their numbers.

What do you think?

Hey, yes some codes are multiple times in the list. There are some villages with same postal code and I think that is ok. Postalcode are not unique.

I have updated the data from geonames and updated the numbers in the brackets.
