I don't have a technical explanation but that's just how they seem to be. I have a 8GB Kingston Flash Drive but actual capacity according to my Mac is 7.44 GB.
It's to do with actual byte size.
This article helps explain the diffences between advertised and actual space on such devices:

whats size is the drive supposed to be?
if its supposed to be a gig, then having something like 986MB is normal.
