I used this site to double check the DPI.
Screen caps come in at 1430x1080. Using 265 DPI, this makes the screen size around 6.76" diagonal rather than the 6.8" diagonal stated.

Note the Glo and Aura are 1024x758 resolution so having odd resolutions is nothing new for eInk.

Using the site you mentioned, a 1430x1080, 6.76" diagonal screen is 265 dpi.
