The gaps make sense.
The reason is the way extended partitions work. An extended partition
contains a partition table with one primary partition and another extended
partition. The primary partition is your logical partitions, and the
extended partition is the space of the remaining logical partitions.
So your layout appears to be:
partition start end
----(partition table) 0 62
sda1(primary) 63 8177084
sda2(primary) 8177085 83762909
sda4(extended) 83762910 863124254
sda4(partition table) 83762910 83762972
sda5(primary) 83762973 84453704
----(extended) 84453705 863124254
----(partition table) 84453705 84453767
sda6(primary) 84453768 94221224
----(extended) 94221225 863124254
----(partition table) 94221225 94221287
sda7(primary) 94221288 100084949
----(extended) 100084950 863124254
----(partition table) 100084950 100085012
sda8(primary) 100085013 102799934
----(extended) 102799935 863124254
----(partition table) 102799935 102799997
sda9(primary) 102799998 103587119
----(extended) 103587120 863124254
----(partition table) 103587120 103587182
sda10(primary) 103587183 863124254
sda3(primary) 863124255 976768064
Looks fine to me.
