Check for any other big files , you could use the following to find the ones:

find . -type f -xdev -size +10000000c -exec ll {} \;

If it shows none/many then decrease/increase a Zero to narrow down the search.

Is it growing? If not, don't worry about it. I've had a root directory at 90%+ for several years and it's never caused any problems because it doesn't grow.
