Evidence from the paper

The solid line is a third-order Birch-Murnaghan equation using the parameters (KT0 = 157 and K0' = 4.3) reduced from shock compression data, as reported by Duffy et al. (1995). ... Using the shock compression data for MgO at pressures up to 199 GPa, together with the Mie-Grüneisen equation, Duffy et al. (1995) have reduced the isothermal volume-compression relation at 300 K.

Parameters derived from shock (dynamic) data reduced to a 300 K isotherm, not from static compression
