I have FiOS and mine reads faster than the speed I pay for by about 100mbps both ways. The tech said they deliberately over-provision so that you'll get at least the advertised speed on wireless. I'm not sure who your provider is so this may not apply to you.

    it's the fact that he has a 1 gig router. with overhead only like 940 Mbps is possible

    That can’t be right because I’ve seen higher speeds than that during downloads with a download manager on my 1GBs infrastructure https://imgur.com/a/aIaVpi8

    His router is rated for 1 gig, meaning it'll do minimum that amount.

    It's not like they're going to set a software rate limit to make sure he doesn't go over that amount in ideal circumstances.

    Unless he owns a Cisco router and hasn't purchased a performance license.
