I was wondering if there was an explanation for the difference in the used memory. Is it possible that the SSD or whatever that is used as internal memory (not the internal SD card i cloned to) is using some type of compression. Not particularly worried just curious.

As Qole stated, jffs2 (flash) is a compressed filesystem. So when you copy it to and ext2 or ext3 partition, it uncompresses along the way.
