One mycelium wallet can contain an unlimited number of smaller wallets. You are posting a single wallet, that belongs to a collection of many wallets.
This is precisely what I'm pointing out with the link I posted. The tool "WalletExplorer" identifies and groups wallets that belong in the same wallet. I've explained this ITT, but you'll have to read the whole thread to get it all.
I've even posted (at the bottom of this tread) the name of the paper that the science is based on. The science which guarantees the principles WalletExplorer is using are sound.
What this all means? The wallet Voat is using is part of a larger wallet (which contains a lot of cheese). Maybe that's Voat's money. Likely it is not.
Simply looking at one wallet (like you posted) doesn't prove anything except the balance of that one wallet. What I posted proves that whoever owns the super-wallet, own voat's wallet and a lot of money.

If it was a wallet on an exchange, could that account for it? I'll go through the thread later for more insight.

yes. the insight is that there exists a type of wallet which contains other wallets
