Inverse relationship between Power and Speed?

For you Garmin Connect users out there, am I right to assume that those of you that ride, on average, at higher speeds also produce more power than the average user in your age group when looking at “Insights”?

I struggle to produce power that resembles anything of other Strava users but I also don’t think I ride relatively slowly. I often have faster segment performances than others but at a much lower average power.

Pulling up Insights in Garmin Connect shows that I produce significantly below average power for my age group, but inversely, my average speed is higher than 71% of other users.

I’m just trying to square why my power output is so low. Initially, I though I might have a faulty left side crank PM but I’ve tried both a Stages Gen 3 and a 4iiii Precision 3+ versions and they’re relatively producing the same numbers.
