Some folks have noticed that the indicated level on the dipstick can vary significantly (same that you saw) depending on whether the car was checked hot shortly after running vs cold after an overnight. I've seen it too on my car, which doesn't burn any oil. I presume this is because some oil in the top of the motor is slow to drain back to the pan. So I always check it cold.
