I'm going to guess that the E-meter has a floor discharge level of 55% SOC
set (so that 55% SOC shows as 0% SOC). When you insist on exceeding this
level the meter reverts to actual calculated SOC. The e-meter option for
adjusting the floor discharge level affects the displayed % SOC and the LED
indicated SOC. I didn't see any mention in the book, however, for what the
display does if the set 0% SOC level is exceeded. You may  have just found
out :-)
