Multiple errors in help for measure-object

In the help file for the measure-object cmdlet there are multiple
errors.

In the Detailed Description section mention is made of four "basic"
modes. That implies the existence of an advanced mode. I am not aware
of an advanced mode existing.

Also in the Detailed Description there is syntax such as: ?Property,
?GroupBy, ?Words. These, I assume, should be for example -Property.
Also there is no GroupBy parameter described later in the parameters
section of the help file. The -Word parameter should be singular.

In the Return Type section it reads "... the number of properties
matching the specified property ..." which doesn't seem right.

The example in the Notes section is incorrect using -Lines and -Words
where the parameter names should be singular.

The same error is present in the command for Example 3.
