Unhappy my consumption goes up when rolling downhill in N

VW fox 2005, 1.6L: 740ml/h (0.19gph) @730rpm, no loads, parked
VW Crossfox 2012, 1.6L: 720ml/h (0.19gph)@710rpm, no loads, parked (just 15000km rolled)


This is what troubles me:

Chrysler sebring 98' 2.5L, 1.3L/h (0.35gph)@ 750rpm, no loads, parked, auto in neutral
....
Chrysler sebring 98' 2.5L, 2L/h (0.54gph) @ 1200 rpm, no loads, auto in neutral, rolling downhill @5mph Aprox.

Why does consumption goes so high when rolling? why does it need to raise rpm?
