[R] Repeating grey scale in graph?

Dear R users,

Could somebody tell me why the grey color ramp is repeated in this 
graph, eventhough the ramp values go from 0 to 1? I must be missing 
something obvious, but I can not see it!

z <- 
c(0.064329041,0.117243316,0.161565116,0.19923015,0.231642175,0.259835539,0.284571226,

x <- c(0,1,2,3,4,5)
y <- c(50, 100, 150, 200, 250, 300, 350)
z <- matrix(z, nrow=length(x), ncol=length(y), byrow=TRUE)

#persp(x, y, z, theta = 30, phi = 30, expand = 0.5,
#  box= TRUE, axes= TRUE, ticktype = "detailed", main="Title of plot")

hgt <- (z - min(z))/ (max(z) - min(z))
z
hgt
cols <- grey(hgt)
persp(x, y, z, col = cols, theta = 30, phi = 30, expand = 0.5,
   box= TRUE, axes= TRUE, ticktype = "detailed", main="Title of plot")


Thanks,

Sander.
