How is the world average higher than any continent except Europe?

  Seems to be wrong. You get an average of about 26 (assuming 4.2 billion people in Asia, 1 in Africa, 0.9 in the Americas and 0.7 in Europe). – edit: no, it could be right. It’s the number of robots per 10,000 manufacturing workers, which is not the same as just population. If there are massive amounts of manufacturing workers in Europe and only a few in Africa the average could still be right.

    Not quite that massive. With 3 degrees of freedom it's impossible to say for precise (see simpson's paradox), but according to the numbers, europe's industrial robots = americas's*0.09 + asia-pacific's*0.51 + africa's*41.66 europe's manufacturing workers = americas's*0.06 + asia-pacific's*0.28 + africa's*1.67 africa's manufacturing workers = europe's*0.60 - americas's*0.03 - asia-pacific's*0.17
