The question being WHY, it is because when the metric system was devised it just ended that way. On the other hand, the British Quart is actually larger in volume than the liter where the US quart is smaller by volume than the liter.

By the way this difference in standards between the different countries is what led to the founding of the metric system, a way of globalising weights and measures.
