Mileage shown on Elevation Chart very wrong

I have noticed that some routes give accurate distance on the map but not on the elevation chart. For example, the 6.6-mile climb up Mission Peak shown here:

The distance is shown accurately as 6.6 miles, but the elevation chart only shows about 5.2 miles. Why the discrepancy? Thanks!
