You are absolutely correct, I misread that as Mosin. Mea Culpa. It is indeed claimed as a Mauser.
However, as you pointed a .30-06 Mauser is actually super weird. The old Mausers are 8mm-Mauser (7.92x57mm) That's the "odd ball" cartridge, but those are actually easy to find because basically every early 20th century Mauser was in 8mm. As you pointed out, a modernized .30-06 Mauser is not at all common.
I think the ATF may simply be wrong about this because they might not understand what they are looking at yet until they hand it to a gunsmith. We've seen the low competence of ATF officials already.
But, like I said, you're 100% spot-on and this is a super important comment that I haven't seen anyone bring up. An old gun buddy of mine mentioned it and that's when I realized "wait... Mauser's are 8mm? dafuq?"
