Likely the same reason for the US

French overseas regions are officially part of France, while US except Hawaii are not, so they likely are not counted in this statistics for US. Also the France has 4-4,5% of total population in overseas territories while US have around 1% so their impact in case of France would be also over 4 times greater.

So it's most certainly just the good US of A.

Puerto Rico and Virgin Islands aren't counted?

I looked at the source and no, they aren't, just the proper states.
