Following is a response from Senior DHS staff member, Tom Pullum:

I checked this with the PR files. In the 2005 data (EG51), shgovern has codes 1-35, but only 26 of those numbers are used. In the 2014 data (EG61), shgov has codes 1-33, but only 25 of them are used.

The governorates are numbered within regions (hv024). If you enter "tab shgovern hv024, nolabel" in the 2005 survey, and something similar in the 2014 survey, you will see the logic of the numbering system.
