Turns out internal (intra-tract) flows are not reported.  This should account for nearly all the missing workers.

They may only be mapping those flows that have enough records so there is not an imputed or  suppressed O-D pair, which would mean sometimes up to 50% of the records do not have flows, so its missing half of the flows.  Those show up as 0 workers due to suppression. Tom Marchwinski

I would be cautious, just did a quick check, it says ACS, but unsourced as to what ACS (I’m guessing 2009 – 2013 county to county flows – otherwise OD pairs are very tricky), also looking at just Montgomery county and DC, and expanding the tool to its maximum range (zero to 293 miles) it’s missing about half the total workers in each of those. Also, tracts are referenced, but that set is not reported at tract.  I welcome your thoughts.
