not really a solution, but only the result counts :)

i am not sure why you got other results... iam confused :)

A more reliable approach might be to specify a viewbox

http://www.w3.org/TR/SVG/coords.html#ViewBoxAttribute

<svg width="3in" height="4in" version="1.1"
     viewBox="0 0 216 288" preserveAspectRatio="none"
     xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg">

or

<svg width="3in" height="4in" version="1.1"
     viewBox="0 0 270 360" preserveAspectRatio="none"
     xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg">

Where the width and height of the viewBox (its last two parameters) are the inches size multiplied by either 72 or 90.
