Golfing!! I'm pretty sure this would also work:

perl -MCGI -e 'print CGI->new->header;open(F,"c");($c)=<F>;print ++$c; +close F;open(N,">c");print N $c;'

    More golf...

    Do echo "0" >c first.

    perl -MCGI -i -e 'while(<>){s!(\d+)!$t=$1+1!e;print}print CGI->new->h +eader,$t' c

    JJ

    Update: Removed useless semicolon.

    Update 2: Even smaller now!

      Well leaving aside locking issues, and the point that the number 2 by itself is not exactly valid html, here is the above made even shorter.
      perl -MCGI -pi -e 'END{print&CGI::header,$t}s/\d+/$t=$&+1/e' c
      UPDATE
      And, of course, there is always a shorter way:
      perl -MCGI -pi -e'END{print&CGI::header,$t}$t=++$_' c
