Why would on the one tire size be UTOG 500 and all other sizes be 620?



Probably one OEM wanted this size and Michelin build according to that spec, and mass produce it for aftermarket as well.
 
The Camry Hybrid takes the 215/60R16 size, in an H-rating. It's the only hybrid out there that requires an H-rated tire to my knowledge. I'm sure that the Michelin Primacy MXV4 in this size is tuned to the needs of the Camry Hybrid.
