If I remember correctly, the SSDF match Fritz 5.32 lost to CM6000 consisted
of 3 games (2-1 for CM6000) and  the SSDF match lost to Nimzo99 was about
45 games but with only a 1-game difference(something like 23-22)
Both CM6000 and Nimzo 99 finished very high in the SSDF ratings, in fact
CM6000 finished in a first-place tie with Fritz 5.32. So the outcomes
of those matches would not be particularly inconsistent with the final
standings.
I agree that the H7.32 score against F5.32 of 22.5-17.5 is only one
match out of many but it does suggest that H7.32 will probably score
higher than F5.32 when all the games are in.
