Flow in PS 95% and with Cura 100%

I've noticed that in the printers Tune menu the flow is set to 95% when slicing with PrusaSlicer and it's 100% when slicing with Cura. In both slicers I have set the multiplier at 1.00.

That makes no sense to me?

Its quite understandable if you have a prusa printer.  If you turn on Expert mode in Prusa Slicer and go to Printer Settings>Custom Gcode, in the start gcode added by default when you add a prusa printer there is a gcode command to set the flow to 95 (unless layer height below 0.075 for the MK3 printers). 

M221 S{if layer_height<0.075}100{else}95{endif}. 

If you don't want the flow set to .95 then remove that line and save the printer profile as a custom name and then use that profile when slicing.  Prusa through lots of testing settled upon 0.95 as 'best' for some reason on their printers.  Many remove it and then tune their filament profiles to match actual filament performance/size instead.
