It's not just CO2 though. Coal doesn't burn nearly as clean as gasoline. Also it's not really clear what that first column represents. Mainly fossil fuel? That could include natural gas burning plants, perhaps even nuclear (covered by "mainly" fossil fuel) etc. Coal has the lowest hydrogen-to-carbon ratio, so if those are any type of average then coal would be higher than what's there.
