Yes, not a typo.  This was a more common size in the past.  A lot of 
hand cranked grinders made for sharpening horse drawn mowers used this 
size, though many of those seemed to be thicker in the center, tapering 
to the edges.  Almost  a hundred years later, it  hard to tell a wear 
pattern from manufacturers intent.   I have the original stone, but it 
is very unevenly worn.  Truing it would not leave enough stone to be 
worth it.
