Sorry to reply to myself, but I just did the same thing on a different
machine (with an older mdadm) and I also got an..."optimistic" resync
speed reading on it after the grow, when it 'resumed from checkpoint'.

Oddly, these machines reported normal speeds during the resyncs that
occurred when I rotated larger drives into the machines.

Perhaps it has something to do with resumption from checkpoints?

Anyway, I hope all the reports help.
