Quite likely what happened, a second geekbench score has shown up for the pro and it matches the air: https://browser.geekbench.com/v5/cpu/search?utf8=&q=MacBookP...

My guess: in geekbench air and pro score the same, because geekbench is shortlived and not thermally constrained. In cinebench you'll see the pro pulling ahead.

Who uploads these results, are they unverified?

Anyone on the Internet can upload results. They are not verified.

The geekbench software uploads them automatically.
