HT2000W SPI and Anti-DoS firewall protection
Does having the SPI and Anti-DoS firewall protection turned on in the Intrusion Detection section of the Firewall setting cause more data usage or how about the Discard Ping To WAN Interface setting?...
Neither will have an effect on your data usage, and are useless features to enable/disable if you're not an SME customer.
Best practice says to keep them enabled though.

More like because the IPv4 on residential systems isn't a publically facing IP address... However, they may be beneficial to have enabled if you're using IPv6 since that is public facing.
My IPv6 is turned on though,is that not right? I haven't messed with that setting?
You may want to keep those two settings enabled, though even with IPv6 enabled, chances are no one would try to remotely attack your network, which those features are meant to help prevent.
