You need to cd / first. Most likely though this is just the OS + cPanel taking up the space

The 4.4GB used space is mostly as rghf said the OS and cPanel. All cPanel/WHM servers use around 4GB starting up. Nothing to worry about though.

du -h --max-depth=1 / Will help you narrow down a little bit. But 4GB doesn't seem like anything to worry about especially for cpanel.

The -h option (df -h) it shows the disk space in "human readable" form. Whereas the (du -sh *) will show the disk space usage used by the files and directories in the current directories.
