The sample PDF provided has a /UserUnit key with the value 3 in the Page dictionary. This key was introduced in PDF 1.6 and is described in various specifications along the lines of "(Optional; PDF 1.6) A positive number giving the size of default user space units, in multiples of 1 ⁄ 72 inch." so it is a scaling factor on default user space. So, based on what you have reported, Acrobat is entirely correct and confirmed by other tooling.
