We don't have to consider 0 and 1200 in calculating the mode height, as those notes are on either end and cancel each other out. To calculate the mode height we first shift the scale so that 0 cents is in the middle of the period, so we take away 600c from every interval. The mode height of the Ionian mode is then (-400 + (-200) + (-100) + 100 + 300 + 500) / (1200*6) = 0.02778.
