Following is a response from DHS Research & Data Analysis Director, Tom Pullum:

I have already asked the data processing expert who worked on this survey. The survey manager believes that a very small number of cases with extreme values were excluded on the basis that they were implausible. We will try to get that information to you. You could probably re-engineer the exclusions by trial and error. I have done that sort of thing before.
