The new system monitor widget has rather unnatural Y-axis descriptions.

It seems like it takes the maximum value and divides it into 4 parts. Since for example system memory usually has a little less than the theoretical maximum available, this results in uneven numbers.

In the attachment you can see the memory monitor widget with this description:

7.8 GiB
15.6 GiB
23.4 GiB
31.3 GiB

But it would look much cleaner with common memory numbers like

8 GiB
16 GiB
24 GiB
(left blank)

Same goes for the disk monitor on the right and others.
