Did you leave yours running long enough? It took mine over a minute to get to that score.
I mean, that's probably been true since forever. A "super computer" is only super relative to other machines from the same era. If you can compare between eras, you could probably call ENIAC a "supercomputer" and some early pocket calculators "a supercomputer [ENIAC] in your pocket."
In other words "a supercomputer in your pocket" is marketing nonsense.
The difference between a phone and a cluster node is mostly one of use cases, not technology.
I think Safari going into the background pauses the clock used for timing and resumes it a bit too late, which screws up the Gflops measurement.
