The 0 inclination orbit must be the most sought one, hence the highest density there. Then in cases where a small compromise from 0-inclination orbit was tolerable, and considering that the second most important thing is fuel consumption, I presume that the rest of orbits may have something to do with the launching point (a lot of satellites were launched from Baikonur Cosmodrome).
