Survey point coordinates not accurate

Has anyone run across this scenario.  I am pretty good with Revit coordinates but never seen this before.  A peer has a coordinate issue with his model and I am stumped.  A spot coordinate placed on the survey point doesn't read the same coordinates.  The spot coordinate is set to report based on the survey point.

We usually do not run into these issues because survey point and project points are at 0 or close together in most of our projects

 

It might be a precission/accuracy issue. The survey point seems to be far away. Depending on other things in the project this might start to cause issues on the accuracy

Please mention Revit version, especially when uploading Revit files.

I figured out the issue.  He moved the survey point while the paperclip was unclipped, which allowed the site coordinates and the shared site coordinates to be different creating the offset.

I was wrong.  That is not the problem.  This is something else altogether.  I created a new project and tried to replicate what they did, but am not getting the same result.  This is what I get in a new blank project.  As you can see the coordinates reflect correctly in both.  I have no idea how they managed to get them to report differently.

That isn't the issue.  We use the state plane systems on the majority of our projects which require these larger numbers but never have had the issue where the survey point reflects differently from the spot coordinate.  The spot coordinate is what is actually being exported as the shared coordinate not what the survey point reflects.
