Odometer Miles Reading VS Engine Reading

Hello everyone, I have a question for you. I recently bought a CL500 W215 from a dismantler to restore it. I am almost 90% done with it and it looks astonishing so far. While I was reading some values the other day with my iCarsoft Reader I noticed that the IC reading for the miles is aroung 170k whereas the engine CAN bus reading is around 50k miles. Is it possible that the odometer has been changed and the miles came from the previous vehicle? Should I bring in to an SDS to check mileage? I have no history whatsoever on this vehicle.

Thank you
