They need a specific number for the final two days, to ensure that play can start and finish at the correct time with two players in each group, going out at ten minute intervals. At The Open, this is 70. So they take the scores of all who played in days 1 and 2, put them in order and count down 70. Whatever the score of the 70th player in the list, that's what the cut is set at. Anybody who is tied on that score goes through as well, so 83 players were involved on the final day this year.

I hope this answers your question

Cheers
