Gas expansion: 1 gallon = 221 cubic inches at 60 degrees.
At 90 degrees the same amount of gas expands to 235.8 cu.
Other factors...My gas was pumped when the temp was 100 degrees. Did the expansion happen IN the tank or was the temp. enough to have most of the gas expanded already as it came out of the pipe.

As a certifiable tank-overfiller, I can tell you to put the cap on and ride soon. If you park it, or go pay for snacks, or anything.... it will expand and pour all over the ground. Anytime it's 85 or over, gas on ground.
Yes, I am hardheaded, and take a long time to learn.
