Service Due at 5000 miles?

So I bought the car in Nov and have about 4700 miles on it... already getting service due in June/5000 miles message. I thought the first service should be at 12 months/10K miles?

12 months from date vehicle was made not the date you bought it.

Garage List
Car computer checks oil and based on driving habits and such recommends service when it car needs it. Also it's the cars first oil change. My m340 needed it at 8k miles

Yeah, mine recently said in 10,000 miles - So I've done ten thou and via the app it now says, in 9,000 miles.
So are the services on a rough mileage or whenever the car says?

I'm happy to do one at ten thou.

Sorry if this is a thread hijack
