Well, my point is that the OIDs in the table are just numbers. They
might reference large objects, or they might not ... and your results
suggest not.
One way to verify what large objects actually exist is
SELECT DISTINCT loid FROM pg_largeobject;
(Depending on your PG version, you might need to be superuser to do
that.)
