Yes, you're right. I haven't seen such an extremly shift before.

It even appears at the official Google Maps page. (They're still using
v2). When you call directions the route gets straight over the roofs
in satellite view

Don't know what you can do to report this. Seems that even the link to
"Report a problem' has been disabled.
