This is an example of why the units need to be correct. It should state that the Leaf gets 4.5 miles per kWh, that is a kilowatt-hour not a kilowatt. This changes your numbers to 1000 Wh / 4.5mi = 222 Wh/mi. Thus you need 222Wh to go a mile. If you only had 222W from a solar panel then you need to have one hour of charging to go that mile.
