The "100%" does not represent the current volume. It marks the position on the slider where the volume is at 100% without amplification. If you move the slider to the right of the "100%" mark then pulseaudio amplifies the sound. You can see the same behavior in VLC where you can have 200% volume. Again, 100% is maximum volume, without amplification.
