Medical renewal question

The medical renewal requirement is FAR 61.23. See the table at the end.

If you had a 3rd class medical Jan 2, 2020 and over 40 yo, I thought the medical would expire Jan 31, 2022. However after reading the table at the end of 61.23, I interpret it as Feb 28, 2022. The table states:

If you hold: 3rd class, Then your medical certificate expires, for that operation, at the end of the last day of the: 24th month after the month of the date of examination shown on the medical certificate

Is it the end of Jan or end of Feb?

Thanks
 
I could be wrong, but I think if you count the months, Jan of 2022 is the 24th month after Jan 2020.
