Wait, or reset it yourself
I've experience occasional large GPS errors that corrected themselves over time (over a couple of days)

Caused primarily by disturbance in the ionisphere that impacted the GPS signals

So run through the manual reset (in your handbook, used when eg correcting posiiton after a ferry trip) or park the car, turn it on, and wait 30min on a clear day (not a rainy or misty day)
