You have a 16T zpool, and have created 15x 1T zvols, leaving 1T free.
Each zvol is mostly unused, so it has 1T available in its
refreservation, and an additional 1T available from the zpool.

The zvols won't actually hold 2T, because they were created with 1T of
space. The space beyond 1T can be used for snapshots though.
