My quick search shows udon noodles coming in higher than that: 208 cals for a 4-oz cooked serving. Times 4 (for 16 oz/1lb) gives you 832 calories. That's higher than 600 cal/lb., so could be the culprit.

To clarify (as the 600 calories/pound originally comes from me)

Soba noodles offer a lower-cal alternative to wheat pasta. Each cup of cooked noodles contains only 113 calories, or just over five percent of the daily limit in a 2,000-calorie diet. White spaghetti, on the other hand, contains 220 calories per cup, while a whole-wheat version contains 174 calories. If you eat pasta three times per week, switching from white pasta to soba noodles will save you over 16,692 calories annually, or the equivalent of almost five pounds.
