Some napkin math, looks very much like the anchor started performing significantly differently, in the changed bed substrate.
(Caveat: I must admit, I dont know too much about the dynamics of large ships. Maybe @auonsson.bsky.social or others know what typical numbers look like)

One remark worth to noticing;
"Slower dragging speeds result in greater penetration depths, while higher speeds may result in the anchor gliding over the seabed"
