If I read this correctly, it sounds like they (1) confused the FAF and the
MAP and (2) waited way too long to go missed.


Either that or they were making the DME measurements from some other point
than I-UVM, or they used some bogus waypoint for these distances in the GPS.
However, I can't figure out any obvious answer. All the likely fixes that
they might have selected by mistake would put them too far east rather than
too far west.
