Hi, It's pretty much impossible, since we don't know what GIS software you used, what commands, what R package and code, or what your data look like.
As a starting point, I'd suggest carefully rereading the help files for both the GIS and the R functions, to make sure that they are doing the same thing, and what you expect them to, and to review your data in both places to ensure that it is the same values and projection, etc. It is entirely possible that one software is scaling your data for you automatically, or some other processing step that is not duplicated by the other software. If trying those things doesn't clarify it for you, then please post back to the list with more information about the software and data you're using.
