1100 km is an hours flying time or more

We have a reasonable indication when the plane ran out of fuel from the satellite pings. Now the belief is that the plane had less endurance than initially expected because its early diversions consumed more fuel than thought. At any possible cruise speed, the 1100 km shift represents more than an hours lower flight time. How does that square with the satellite data?
