It's your alerts number. View the alerts page and you'll see them all (people's replies, likes of your posts etc).

Click on "Latest" and then at the top of the threads you'll see "Alerts". Click on that. Those are your followed threads, likes, or quotes. You will see that number clear as you click on Alerts.

Back up to one now!
Now it's two.
Just click "unfollow" if you no longer want alerts regarding a specific thread.
