I thought it was odd too, but the people insist that this thing
originally came with a prewired plug, and that all they've done is
replace the plug so that the flex could be passed through a
worksurface
to a socket.

5055W @240V

10A + 30% of remainder.

2400W + 30% of 2655W = 3196.5A = 13.32A @ 240V

They're pushing it a bit, eh?

Assuming that you have a habit of turning all the hobs on full and
then switching the whole unit on at the socket surely? I suspect that
in a real life situation it will be the other side of 13A ~ 240V -
close but not over IYSWIM.
