Something very strange going on with the SFMR measuring the surface windspeeds.
It appears that they may have encountered a low level jet stream. Or possibly a strong shear line.

Numbers in bold are the SFMR estimated surface wind speed in knots.

Area of peak wind speeds would have been over Ponce de Leon Bay in the Everglades Nat'l Park.
