You are correct. I did find this instead:

The new S58 powerplant delivers 473 hp at 6,250 rpm and 406 lb-ft of torque between 2,650 and 6,130 rpm. The Competition models’ S58 engine is further tuned to produce 503 hp at 6,250 rpm and 479 lb-ft of torque between 2,750 and 5,500.

So it looks like a bigger difference in torque through a wider range. Probably due to the mechanics of a pressure plate in the MT vs how the ZF8 can handle torque.
