The bug
Some blocks create too few and others too many particles when being broken.
The particle count can be seen in the debug screen (F3) next to the P value.

It appears the amount of particles depends on the complexity of the block, for example an unconnected glass pane creates about 20 particles while a crossing one (
/setblock ~ ~ ~ glass_pane[north=true,east=true,south=true,west=true]) creates about 65.See also MC-122427
