I'm not sure at all. It's just the first number I found online. Since a liter of water is a kilo it seemed reasonable to accept a liter of soil being a similar mass.

But shoot. I just went downstairs and checked the bags of soil we recently bought. 44 liters and 16 kilos. That's about 0.36 kilos per liter, so you're correct.

That said, when I had 4 of those sitting in the back of a Subaru hatchback you can definitely feel the accelerator get mushy. It probably wouldn't be terrible to carry that much weight for short distances occasionally. Regularly riding long distances on less than perfect roads with that much load sounds pretty painful.
