Increased angle of attack

"Is there some explanation of how it can increase lift without increasing drag? Either they fudged the "graph" or it breaks the laws of physics."

Maybe the lift causes the front to lift more than the back thereby increasing the angle of attack of the body shape. As the centre of lift is probably more towards the front than the back.

Correct me if I am wrong but that is what happens in many older cars.
