IAS (per Info Bar) and Airspeed (per Cockpit Airspeed Indicator) : Why such a big difference?

When watching a track I noticed that the "IAS" on the (bottom info bar) was indicating some 190 km/hr whereas the airspeed indicator was indicating some 380 km/hr!!

Should there be such a big difference between these?

I thought that the airspeed indicator in the cockpit reflected the "indicated airspeed"?

I must say, in the above case the airspeed felt far closer to the 190 km/hr than to the 380 km/hr!!

Would be interested to hear your views on this.

Thanks

You have obviously selected "Imperial" units under Options/Gameplay. So the info bar indicates IAS as190 kn (knots) while your cockpit instrument naturally indicates 380 km/h.

That's all correct.
