I looked at my BOINC projects today and saw that the CPDN had finished but was still sitting on my machine. I updated with CPDN and then went and checked on my score. I had recieved about 7500 pts since I last checked it a few days ago. Is this normal for CPDN to hand out large amount of pts or os this a glitch in the update process on BOINC?

Yes, this is a glitch and should be automatically solved soon. See Thyme Lawn's very answer there

Albeit, there are participants suggesting that some extra credit for successful completing of model should apply.

It is a normal glitch. There is a credit correction process that runs on the server and should adjust your credit within a day or so. The RAC will still be screwed up though.
