> how did they come up with that 2600mAh figure.

The same capacity corresponds to different mAh at different voltages, maybe they are playing games with that.

AKA lying. No need to steelman dishonest small-time crooks and marketers from China.

Also, it's not the voltage, but over-current that reduces overall produced energy.

Typically the mAh is listed at some standard discharge rate, unless the cell is specifically advertised as a high-current draw cell. But either way an honest supplier will provide the draw/capacity table for you, rather than cherry pick the best one.
