Don't think that's a typo! Check out a paint store next time you're in the US. Paint cans are *routinely* filled to a little less than the common 3.78 L "gallon" size, probably so they can add pigment for custom color sales.
Last time I was at the hardware store, they were *all* in the 3.6 - 3.7 L range, with the correspondng floozy designation.

It is a standard sized , 1 U.S. gallon can of paint, although the label is designed for the Canadian market, as the wording is bilingual English and French, and the volume is listed solely in litres. There is an obvious typographical error on the label, in that it says the volume is 3.67 L, instead of the more proper 3.78 L. My guess is that rather than being a miscalculation, the label designer, or whomever actually input the label design, had their fingers on the wrong keys and instead of hitting the 78 they mistakenly hit 67.
