The “Bounties” category lacks a progress counter, unlike “Challenges”.
I might even believe this was intentional, if the journal HUD didn’t sometimes display a progress counter specifically for “Bounties” tasks (it works inconsistently, but this is described in another bug report).
Using “Deranged Council” as an example, the journal shows a progress counter, but there is no counter in “Activities.” (Video)
hm that’s a head scratcher. I’ll leave it open for now but if I sweep this one up after 6 months or so and no changes in the game on this, I will assume that it’s intended.

Fingers crossed to see a fixed journal HUD within the next 6 months and be able to draw some conclusions. 
If everything stays unchanged, this post will likely be moved to the feedback section.
When bounties or challenges are viewed from the menu, the text “0/6” displays beside the name of every bounty/challenge. The 0 doesn’t ever change to other numbers even when challenges are progressed or completed, and the 6 displays even when the number required for a bounty or challenge is not 6, so it seems to be a static number that is mistakenly displayed.
The screenshots are just a few examples, but the issue occurs on all bounties and challenges.
Not sure if you’ve figured out, but the 0/6 is referring to the number of pinned quest on your HUD log (pressing Y) - you can pin a max of 6. But I do agree, it’s counterintuitive and is often mistaken as the bounty/challenge progress given that it’s right beside the the quest name.
