It sounds like df is reporting disk usage for the file system you're running your docker instance atop. In that case, there may be other uses of the file system, aside from the docker instance, which means df is reporting the correct numbers (and du is, too).

The problem, if it is a problem, is not likely to be in df itself; it's likely to be in the underlying filesystem code. You can check for this by running 'strace df' and looking at what numbers the system calls return.
