Can confirm, have some ideas: Apple uses different file formats "internally" and also different resolutions, maybe saving them all in parallel as "one" video, which might cause this issue. So the total space per image is actually the sum of original .mov, optimized .mp4 and thumbnail image.

Also, (automated) version history might have caused this! Maybe (automatic) image optimiztion saved old and new versions of everything.
