If you personally changed the oil, thats why. Because you can't reset the counter.

If ford did the service they have forgotten to reset it.

Not sure about Ford, but if its like a BMW - It calculates upon how many Km's you have driven and how hard the car has been driven. The harder you drive it, the more regularly the message will say change the oil.
