You are using the same key for multiple values. You will only retain the last value assigned to the hash for a given key. For example 'TOTAL QUALITY' has values 8 and 14, only 14 is retained.
Most likely a hash is not appropriate for whatever you are trying to achieve. You could however:
use warnings;
use strict;
use Data::Dump::Streamer;
my @data = <DATA>;
my %dataPos;
chomp @data;
push @{$dataPos{$data[$_]}}, $_ for 0 .. $#data;
Dump (\%dataPos);
__DATA__
WELL
TOTAL QUALITY
POSITION NAME
TOTAL QUALITY
POSITION NAME
Prints:
$HASH1 = {
"" => [ 3 ],
"POSITION NAME"
=> [
2,
5
],
"TOTAL QUALITY"
=> [
1,
4
],
WELL => [ 0 ]
};
Which creates a list of positions for each key value.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
