Note the runway crosswind is reported higher than the wind velocity. I would
be delighted if someone could explain this -specific- condition.


It's an error. It might be because the winds and the runway crosswind were
measured at different points, or at different times, or because of errors in
the math (roundoff several times?). Mathematically, the crosswind cannot be
greater than the total wind.
