I would presume the definition would be the people living there but born abroad? Looking this up for Japan and Brazil, it gives 2 and 0.9 percent respectively on Wikipedia, so in the ranges corresponding to the colors. May it be that SP is lot more international than rest of the country? Brazil has actually a huge population - much bigger than Japan, meanwhile Tokyo is bigger than SP. So even if SP is more international than Tokyo, that doesn't seem impossible to go with these stats, as long as the rest of Brazil would have lot less immigrants.
