What was the queue like before? Those don't seem like particularly large values (not that I know how big pt.wikisource is, so it's a little hard to judge). If it's been going both up and down, then I doubt it's a result of an event 9 days ago. There have probably been other edits to templates.
These things aren't uncommon. If you got to the [[Special:Statistics]] for English Wikisource (at s2 cluster) and refresh it a few times, some of these the job queue is only "5", some others "6,569" (for me, the HTML code shows srv107, srv121, srv149 for 6,569 value and srv83, srv40, srv94, srv140 for the 5 as value).
PS I've just looked at the recent changes and there haven't been any
template edits since the one you mention. Do you transclude pages from other namespaces (userboxes in the user namespace, perhaps)?
Yes, Portuguese Wikisource have page transclusion involving practically all namespaces. Some userboxes (the highest majority are babel-boxes) are available, but all of them at user namespace ([[Usuário:Box/<something>]]). Like others small Wikimedia communities, the social interaction is made outside of wikis (IRC, MSN, email, phone etc), and because it no significant edits can be found on user namespace.
Another type of transclusion is between main namespace and main namespace, to generate the "print versions" (based on the "print versions" at English Wikibooks). I can't found any edit that force to regenerate a large or medium "print version" since the edit mentioned on {{hino}} (and no "print versions" transcludes {{hino}}, this is a information box for single page works with no need for "print version")
Normally the job queue is from ~3 to ~10 due to {{NUMBEROFARTICLES}} magicwords (and this value is absorb at the current variant of job queues)
