Section 7 says:

              +-------------------------+------------------+
              | error-tag               | status code      |
              +-------------------------+------------------+
              | in-use                  | 409              |
              | lock-denied             | 409              |
              | resource-denied         | 409              |
              | data-exists             | 409              |
              | data-missing            | 409              |

It should say:

              +-------------------------+------------------+
              | error-tag               | status code      |
              +-------------------------+------------------+
              | in-use                  | 409              |
              | lock-denied             | 409              |
              | resource-denied         | 409              |
              | data-exists             | 409              |
              | data-missing            | 404              |

Notes:

The <error-tag> data missing should be mapped to status code '404' instead of '409' to get consistent with the defintion of data-missing in RFC6241.
