Likelihood that increase is not by chance

I saw that in protein-coding genes there are some genes more frequent than expected. How can I estimate the likelihood that this increase is not by chance?

I have the ability to estimate individual chromosomes by these criteria. 22 out of 23 chromosomes had such kind of increase and Wilcoxon Signed-Rank Test gave me p<0.000288, but I can't interpret this result nor can understand if it gains more persuasiveness to the fact, that difference is real.

UPDATE: Mouse gives the same increase for 19 out of 20 chromosomes

What do you mean exactly when you say that some protein coding genes are more frequent than expect?

I've found that mitochondrial genes tend to overlap more frequently on human and mouse genomes than any genes do overlap. enter image description here

Then I checked it for every chromosome and it is the case for every chromosome.

Hope I answered your question.
