When you add captions to wrapped objects, Word puts the captions inside text boxes, and the numbering sequence for captions will be determined by the relative positions of text box anchors. You will have to move the text box anchors, which can be done via drag & drop, and then update fields.

Alternatively, put your objects "In line with text" which means that captions will be in ordinary text paragraphs (and part of the normal text flow).
