For some reason, chart.js uses the smallest amount in data as minimum ticks value. Simply adding ticks.min: 0 apparently solves the issue:

var ctx = document.getElementById('chart')
var myBarChart = new Chart(ctx, {
  type: 'horizontalBar',
  data: {
    labels: [
      "Foo",
      "Bar",
      "Baz"
    ],
    datasets: [{
      data: [725000, 600000, 900000],
      backgroundColor: [
        "#ccf6ec",
        "#ff6654",
        "#009784"
      ],
      hoverBackgroundColor: [
        "#ccf6ec",
        "#ff6654",
        "#009784"
      ]
    }]
  },
  options: {
    legend: {
      display: false
    },
    scales: {
      xAxes: [{
        display: false,
        ticks: {
          min: 0
        }
      }],
      yAxes: [{
        display: false
      }],
    }
  }
});
