Re: Why is this?
It's a "fault" with the program.
1-Notice that it is not running all possible results. It's only calculating 500000 random hands. So it's to be expected there will be a slight difference between the two hands, due to randomness
2-The site states "Results with the same parameters are cached", so no matter how many times you rerun it, if you have the exact same cards in the exact same order, you'll get the exact same results. Try running it again, but switch the order of two of the cards. You'll probably see a difference. Also try running it using different suits.
Here's my results:
