Picture of Core developers Picture of Particularly helpful Moodlers

The URLs https://download.moodle.org/download.php/stableXYZ/… are HTML pages containing JavaScript which starts the download. Is it possible you're calculating the checksum of that page instead of the expected zip or tar file?

If I download the files with:

wget https://download.moodle.org/download.php/direct/stable401/moodle-latest-401.tgz \
  https://download.moodle.org/download.php/direct/stable401/moodle-latest-401.zip \
  https://download.moodle.org/download.php/direct/stable401/moodle-4.1.3.tgz \
  https://download.moodle.org/download.php/direct/stable401/moodle-4.1.3.zip

And then calculate the checksums:

sha256sum moodle-latest-401.tgz moodle-latest-401.zip moodle-4.1.3.tgz moodle-4.1.3.zip

I get the published values as expected:
