That's a bit unexpected as usually an AQM should only mark a small portion of the packets. Or do I interpret the data there incorrectly?

We believe that's evidence of the ECN field being used incorrectly by some UDP-based applications.  This is discussed in the draft and could be due to people putting values intended for the DSCP field (6 bits, left justified) or the obsolete Precedence-TOS fields (3+4 bits, left justified) directly into the TOS byte.

For that reason, we only count TCP and what are probably tunnelled TCP traffic as evidence of actual ECN and AQM deployment.
