I guess, you have changed the numbers via 'offset'. That's the wrong 
way. You have to use a manual page break via Insert -> Manual Break. You 
have to set the page style (it may be the same as before). Then the 
checkbox 'change page number' is enabled and you can check it and enter 
the new starting number.

If you want to do it later on, go to the first paragraph (it may be a 
heading) of the page, where the page number should be changed. Then  use 
tab 'textflow' from Format->Paragraph. If the first thing on the page is 
a table, you find it in the table properties. If the first thing is an 
index, you should delete the index, enter a blank line and insert the 
index after the blank line. And then set the new page number in the 
properties of the blank line.

Kind regards
Regina
