I didn't find the source on your data. I don't see statistics for police killing unarmed people, but I can find that police killed over 1,000 people and a statement that says 60% were unarmed and not committing a violent crime.
If we just look at your numbers, it seems like you're saying that when ( 9 / 41 = ) 21% of police killings affect 13% of the population, that's somehow less than should be expected. I don't see why that's not 50% more than expected.
Though, if you share your data source, that could clear up what the statistic actually means.
