Does the master EQ affect the overal dB level?

[-genetic-]

So heres the thing,

I have a limiter on the master track and everything was just below the 0.0dB. Thru out the whole track it wasn't going overboard.
I wanted to cut everything below 30hz to get rid of unnecessary rumble using the EQ of the master channel in FL, and all of a sudden the master channel meter goes sky rocket!

What's this all about? It shouldn't do this right?

I am cutting the signal, but yet it affects the overall level as +dB?


Can somebody please explain this?
