That output is the MTD (NAND/emmc) partitions and their size as defined in 
the kernel/bootloader. This does not correspond to the actual used area but 
rather the maximum available size.
In your case system partition is size 0x22600000 = 576716800

I don't recall offhand if system.img uses the sparse image format. If it 
does not then you would always have system.img size == system partition 
size on mtd. This is because the img also contains the 'empty' area of the 
partition.
