ImageMagick is displaying the image correctly.

Apparently ImageJ uses this bit of hint that it has stored in the 
image description tag to "know" how to scale the image data.  This is 
a very proprietary non-TIFF way to do things.

Try using 'normalize' in ImageMagick and you will see pretty much the 
same image.  The minimum and maximum sample values are indeed 457 and 
16383.
