For the OP, here is the explanation. Note your eye position with respect to the PAPI slope.

I have used a typical 400m front edge of the aiming point marking for the location of the PAPI.

It is a pity that whoever did that diagram couldn't get C and B correct; B is longer on the diagram but shorter on the numbers.
