The same reason why a centimeter is greater than a millimeter.
milli: one-thousandth (1/1000)
centi: one-hundredth (1/100)
kilo: one thousand (1,000)
mega: one million (1,000,000)
giga: one billion (1,000,000,000)
A centipede has less legs than a millipede because for every 1 leg a centipede has, the millipede has 10! This is based on the math above^^. Now, if you compare ONE CENTILITER to ONE MILLILITER, the centiliter would be greater because:
1 centiliter = 10 milliliters

The milli- prefix means 1/1000 (or 0.001)
1/100 > 1/1000 which means centi- > milli-
Thus 1 cl > 1 ml.

* 1/100 is more than 1/1000.
