Answer: depending on the method, 138-139 (imperial) gallons, or 626 L

Explanation:

The wt of water is 4924-3547 lb = 1377 lb = 1377/2.2 kg = 626 kg = 626 L

1gallon = 4.5 L (it does where I come from and who still measures things in imperial anyway?) so I guess  that is 139 gallons

or alternatively, I recall from distant childhood, “a pint of water weighs a pound and a quarter” which means 1 gallon = 10 lb, so 1377 lb = ~138 gallons
