A small discrepancy?

I just took the survey for Sonoma County internet speeds as requested in an email from the City of Petaluma.
The results for my test were:
Test Server San Francisco Bay Area, US
Download 407.23 Mb/s
Upload 325.08 Mb/s
Latency 3 ms
Retransmission 0.04%
Using the same computer but but member tools, the SONIC speed test returned this:
Sonic.net, Inc. San Jose, CA
Test results
Ping 3 ms Jitter 4ms
Download 858.1 Mbps
Upload 794.5 Mbps
That is a 50% difference. Is this due to the speed test SONIC provides running all on FIBER? Or is there another reason one would expect this difference?
Thanks!
