Its just a presentation detail. It appears Microsoft and Mozilla take the content octets of the ASN.1 integer and they hex encoded it. OpenSSL appears to convert the it into a binary number/big endian array and hex encodes it before presenting it to you. Another tool could have turned it into a binary number and Base64 encoded it before presenting it to you. The important detail is the underlying data. You can use tools like OpenSSL's asn1parse or Gutmann's dumpasn1 to see the raw data, if needed.
