Happens occasionally, has to do with the new hardware, benchmarks need to be updated to get an accurate reading.
Sorry but, the reading is inaccurate.
Lol
You can try Anvil Storage Utilities. Scroll down in 1st post to new download link for RC1.

And repeating.........
I question the relevance of some of these benchmarks with real world software applications. After all isn't real world apps what we use PCs for????
My personal reasoning is that I run one, perhaps two (after a fiddling if needed) on a new drive is to compare to the mean of my drive and comparable setups.
After that - the drive gets used. No more tests.
And despite my new drives lower 4k speeds compared to my m4's higher scores - the perceivable difference is negligible.
Still 'feels' good in the speed department and the extra capacity offsets any 'speed' loss.
It's a good idea to run a benchmark when you first get a SSD, to check if the settings are correct and the drive functions as it should.
We have seen many posted here that were less than 50% of what they should be, indicating a problem. Many were corrected, this is the benefit of this thread.
