The definitions you link all include a meaning of “most” that is “a majority of”. Context matters.

“China has the most people.” Here it means the greatest quantity.

“Most people are Chinese.” Here it means a majority of people are Chinese.

That’s just how English works.

Also, India has the most people, not China.
