The builtin gzip utility on MacOS is an Apple implementation and does not produce a binary equivalent of GNU's gzip so the checksums will not match if you're trying to compare a product from GNU's gzip (as you would typically get on a linux machine) with a product produced from Apple's gzip.
Mac users could brew install gzip to get a GNU gzip binary and fix their PATH to use homebrew gzip instead of over Apple's builtin, but Apple builtin binaries sometimes have custom options or proprietary options that other builtins rely on so doing that might cause other problems on your workstation.
