You don't currently do anything with hours in the JavaScript, so that's why it's not changing. You're only setting the minutes and seconds. You'll need to get a reference to the hours label like you did with minutes and seconds and then set it to be parseInt(totalSeconds / 3600).
Why do this? if (!!document.getElementById("counter"). Just do this: if (document.getElementById("counter")). Applying the negation operator twice is the same thing as not applying it at all.
Regarding this concern:
The numbers jump around
What do you mean? It may be helpful to include a link to a jsfiddle with all of your HTML, CSS, and JS so we can run it on our end.
One final thing to note: You don't need totalMinutes. Given a number of seconds, the number of minutes it represents is equal to parseInt(totalSeconds / 60) % 60. Since you're tallying the seconds, you don't need to also tally the minutes.
This is fantastic, thank you. As for the numbers jumping around, I posted a gif at the top of the post. It is hopefully attached below, although this isn't that important.
One important thing though (customer request), I need the numbers to start from 01:34:06. Using your method, how would you set the starting numbers?
Consider using

Just in the HTML, if it's a fixed start. Otherwise you can just use JS to allow users to enter a start time.
Yeah, that is exactly what I have done. Page loads with 01:32:20 and then changes the timer to 00:00:20.
I'll keep working at it, the help is much appreciated, thank you
