Offers can be pretty specific. I might be worth 300k to one company but 600k to another down the street. The ranges can get pretty ridiculous at a certain point. levels.fyi can't really cope with ranges like that, especially if you're being grabbed for a more niche role/ background that they're particularly eager to fill.

What this means is that, no, you're not in luck. One company might legitimately pay you twice what the others will.

Do they even do that? My feeling is all recruiters just mass email candidates and neither understand nor consider backgrounds or requirements. All Meta recruiters I heard from certainly where like that.
