In a packet capture of sFlow export packets, I noticed some sFlow
samples were decoded as MPLS over UDP. The sFlow sampled packet was
actually just a UDP VoIP packet with no dissector support.

What logic does Wireshark use to opportunistically consider UDP
payload to be MPLS?

From looking at the code, the logic appears to be "is the traffic to or from UDP port 6635?"

So *is* the traffic to or from UDP port 6635?
