Possibly because there's a subtle but definite difference between an experiment carried out on 51 subjects from which 1 stopped before 300V and one on 50 subjects from which nobody stopped before 300V.
I'm not saying that's what happened, but as far as I know, there's no assurance mechanism to verify datasets reported by scientists.
