I don't really understand how to read this, so only 96% of 5' 4" boys are taller than their 5' 2" father? What?

96% of males with a 5'4" mother and a 5'2" father are taller than 5'2"

Y=mothers height. X=Fathers height

%=considering the height of both parents what % of girl/boy are taller than their mother/father
