What you're missing here is the fact that different tools report the sizes
differently.
Look into the difference between "GiB" and "GB":
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mebibyte
you have:
750156.38 MiB =
750156380 KiB =
750156380000 B =
732574589.8 KB =
715404.87 MB =
698.63 GB
(with the "i" the factor is 1000, without it, the factor is 1024)
