Different encodes of the same song can give better and worse scores. Looking at the graph on those pictures, yours is either a 128kb encode, or a 320kb encode, and the other one is probably the oppersite of that.

There's been a lot of disucssion on how to get around this problem, but there's never been any resolution. The only way something like this could be fixed is if Dylan actually fixed the engine some way or another so that everyone gets the same encode.

Its sort of like how the last time I played "Through the fire and flames" and the top score was 10,000,000...

It baffles me that you'd get this upset over something so trivial, not to mention expect other people to hunt down torrents of some song they don't care about just to solve YOUR problem.

In my experience, the tactic in Mono (especially in Casual) is to hit every single block. If you were to hit that last block that you mentioned missing, it may give you a boost of at least 200 points, which, when packed with the Stealth, Clean Finish, and whatever Match #'s you're getting, should come out as more than 900. 
Ch'mon.
