Inflated degrees of freedom

When I run the following model, the program is telling me that I have 7405 degrees of freedom when there should only be around 370. I'm just wondering if anyone can offer any insight into what could be causing this discrepancy? Here's the code I'm running:

MissDataSim2 <- read.table("F:/Kyle/Research/OpenMx/Data/Kyle.MissDataSim2.txt", header = TRUE)

library(OpenMx)

MissDataModel3<-mxModel("Missing Data Simulation Structural Model with Phantom Constructs",
type="RAM",
mxData(MissDataSim2,
type="raw"
),

Welcome to the OpenMx SEM modeling forum.

This forum is designed for discussions about how to create and fit SEM models with OpenMx. This forum is designed to be about the nuts and bolts of how to use OpenMx rather than a general purpose SEM modeling forum. For questions about the models themselves, rather than how to implement them in OpenMx, please see the OpenSEM forums where models are split by many different types.
