Be aware the rules linked from Wikipedia are NOT the rules implemented. The rules implemented vary a great deal from the real rules, and make the game much more random and luck-based.

The rules for 3 of a kind, 4 of a kind, small straight, and large straight are all different.

In this implementation 3 and 4 of a kind only counts the dice used in the pairing, not the other dice.

The small straight is completely different, rather than being a 4 long straight it is explicitly a straight of 1 - 2 - 3 - 4 - 5. The large straight is only a straight of 2 - 3 - 4 - 5 - 6.

This makes the odds identical for both straights, but has the large still worth more points.
