This is NOT a valid DICOM file.

It contains a private element in an odd group with an element
number < 0x0010, which is illegal; furthermore it is a sequence.

% andump PrivateOwnerInversion.dcm
...
(0x0028,0x1051) DS Window Width 	 VR=<DS>   VL=<0x0004>  < 192>
(0x4d4d,0x0001) LO PrivateCreator 	 VR=<SQ>   VL=<0xffffffff>  	[]
          ^^^^                               ^^
...

Whilst it is true that this is also not a private creator element
either, that assumption is present in the toolkit to deal with
other buggy images which do send a string in this value.
