This seems more strange. You would expect that an oil consists of 100% fat, or maybe a bit less if there are impurities. The other peak lies around the 91%, very much like the specific gravity of 0.991.

Conclusion is that some producers report their nutritional values per 100g, some per 100ml and some use the canonical value of 100% (2193 products). A few product have values close to 100%, which seems most honest.
