Sensor Fusion streaming + accounter = 8-bit packet numbers?

I stream quaternions using the sensor fusion module (in C++). When adding an Accounter processor to the quaternion data signal to receive the packet numbers, the numbers only go from 0 to 255 and then start again from 0. This does not happen with a packet counter on e.g. the accelerometer signal.
I could not find any mention of this in the documentation, is this known or expected behavior?

    Yes, the quaternion value consumes a majority of the BLE packet.
