There's the KDE CVS list archives and there's the CIA commit database. Both of those do however also include other branches, and the former also some follow-up discussion. Shortly before we hit the 100k bug number, the CIA displayed the 100k commit number, which is now at 122k. Unfortunately I don't have the full archives anymore but somebody who does could count the messages rather easily. As for the lines of code which changed, counting them would require a full repository diff, and no I don't have that diskspace :) The 63000 seems to be the value of commits, but including all branches.
