Further to what Erik said, the closed connections don't accumulate
over time, they're the result of a single attack or a portscan.
subsecuent attacks only reuse them without increasing their number.
you'll notice that most of the connections were made from the same IP.

On 9grid there are 500+ connections in the "closed" state, all from
the same IP which, it appears from the logs, ran an automated scanner
for vulnerable websites:
