Vanguard 401(k) 2060 fund massively misallocated

My vanguard investment dashboard currently indicates the following:

stocks: 69.86%, Suggested: 90%

bonds: 4.35%, Suggested: 10%

short-term-reserves (money market) 25.79%,Suggested: 0%

\----

Why would this asset mix occur and vary from the model so drastically? My understanding is this means more than a quarter of my funds have been uninvested and thus I've been missing out on associated growth

Am I crazy? How could the world's largest retirement fund manager screw this up like this?
