95 percentile of precipitation data

Hi, All!

For the territory of our project, we have standardized data (by state), based on historical data. The data is given in monthly average and daily maximum per month. I am taking daily maximum for each month, and am receiving the following image: 
January - 22mm

February - 28mm

March - 26mm

April - 34mm

May - 47mm

June - 47mm

July - 34mm

August - 22mm

September - 47mm

October - 34mm

November - 30mm

December - 47mm

In my understanding, the 95 percentile and 100 percentile are equal (47mm) because 4 months in a year have 47mm daily maximum data. 

Please, advise, if I am right or wrong. 

Because, this means that I am actually doing the same effort, but I have to record the credit satisfaction correctly. 

Thank you.
