The reason is that one value is calculated by summing differences from
the mean value, whereas the other is calculated by fitting
one-dimensional HHCF using an assumed theoretical curve.  Why do you
expect exactly the same value?  The values have to agree mutually and
with the true value only if the surface is infinite and corresponds
perfrectly to the theoretical HHCF (including no global distortion, row
mismatch etc.).

Value from HHCF will be typically smaller because roughness with small
spatial frequencies (comparable to √image size) contributes less,
row mismatch increases the plain σ estimate while having no influence on
1D HHCF, etc.
