Could it be that the first message with that field wrote it as a
String? The first value wins per index and numbers are converted back
to Strings. Try manually cycling to a new Graylog2 index, search in
the last 5 minutes only and try charting the value again. The reason
to only search in the 5 minutes is to make sure that only your newly
cycled index is read - Wait 5 minutes before performing the search. ;)

The manual cycling is either possible via a REST call or from the web
interface: System -> Indices -> "Manually cycle deflector index" from
the maintenance drop down in the top right.

You can learn more about the Graylog2 index model and what manually
cycling the deflector means here:

Hope that solves the issue! :)
