I think someone misread "weekend" as "weekday":

"MAX
* Weekly MAX trips declined 2 percent to 653,900 trips
* Weekday MAX trips declined down 1.4 percent to 104,100 trips
* Weekend trips declined 4.4 percent to 133,400 trips"

104,100 x 5  +  133,400 = 653,900.

I'm not sure that using average daily numbers for weekdays and the
entire weekend for the weekend is especially clear.

Best,
