The majority of them were given charges of breaking and entering into a capitol building or picketing in a capitol building. Not really sure what the graphic is trying to convey. It makes it seem like the majority plead guilty to inssurrection.

I agree - people were under-charged.

It's showing what it says on the label - outcomes of cases relating to Jan 6. People are overwhelmingly guilty. Where's the reference to insurrection?

Well, every person there is guilty of insurrection.
