I humbly submit that your math is incorrect.  If the Imperial gallon is
larger (it is) you need to divide the Imperial MPG by the conversion to get
the US conversion.  Therefore, the US MPG must be LESS than the Imperial
MPG.  As you are showing it (US MPG) to be higher, there must be an error in
your math.

Actually, if you reverse the labels ("Imp" "US") the numbers look right.
