Two sets having the same cardinality (number of inhabitants) is insufficient to prove that two sets are equal. There is an additional condition that they all share the same elements.
I read 1 + Nat as: map each element in the Naturals to its successor (i.e. Nat - {0}). 0 is in Nat, but 0 does not exist in "1 + Nat" since it got mapped to 1.
This would be true if the set we were working with were the Integers instead of the Naturals.
