Default M1 Used Oil Analysis--does This Make Sense?

Just got my UOA back from SOS. Here are the results:

Copper 4
iron 3
Chromium 0
Lead 0
Aluminum 3
Silicon 8
Moly 78
Sodium 7
Potassium 3
Magnesium 25
Tin 0
Silver 0
Zinc 986
Boron 519
Water Negative
Fuel Negative
glycol negative
Oxidation 170
Sulfer 115

The oil (M1) had 4,000 miles on it. I live in the city and autocross, so that's 4000 miles of traffic, short trips and flogging on the autoX course. Oh, and it also includes months of sitting this winter. Filter was honda PCX.

I'm no expert, but I think these numbers look pretty good. But, what seems odd is the Zinc/Moly/boron numbers.

My Zinc and Moly numbers were both higher than Road Rage's virgin analysis of M1. And my Boron is much higher.
