Of course, however given that there are 1.2 million repositories with makefiles, the listed average would mean that they contain 1.8 billion makefiles in total. I doubt that that’s the case.

Also, according to the page, only 59 million of all files are named “Makefile”.

I suspect that the file language recognition has major false positives for the Makefile language.
