Default Knitting needle size, US V MM?

I bought a knitting needle guide from "Boye" and it has measurements in
US needle size and mm sizes.

The mm sizes are listed as 2, 2/1/4, 2/3/4.. and one my questions are,
how come they list a mm as a fraction?

It seems to me that the mm would be 2, 2.25, 2.75 etc.
