As far as the episode number controversy, here's the answer: There were not 140 episodes to the series, but 140 stories, since some of the episodes had 2 different stories.

Well, that still doesn't solve the problem. If you counted the episodes with 2 15-minute stories as a single episode, then the count would be 134 instead of 140. That's still more than "just over" 100 episodes.
Additionally, "The Halloween Door" was originally a TV special, and if DuckTales season 1 and TMNT season 5 taught us anything, its that companies don't include TV specials in catalogues alongside TV episodes. So there's a chance that might go missing.
On top of that, several episodes have been cut for both content and time over the years. The recent Ren & Stimpy DVDs have proved that companies that are ignorant of this ocassionally use the edited versions of episodes instead of the original ones (despite plastering "uncut" on the box).
So I'm still a little concerned. But still excited!
