I run:

displayplacer list | grep -e Resolution: -e Scaling:
Resolution: 1728x1117
Scaling: on
Resolution: 1920x1080
Scaling: off

the secondary is correct. however, the primary retina display is 16-inch (3456 × 2234) maybe it's a miscalculation of the 120hz?

120Hz, is the refresh rate. That is separate from resolution. The resolution looks awkward  but it is correct. Macbook Pro Displays use retina resolution (scaling:on), effectively increasing pixel density density, to bring you a crisper looking image. The resolution is 3456x2234 (physically) but it renders as 1728x11171728x1117 is (3456/2)× (2234/2)See also What is a 'Retina' display, and why it matters | AppleInsiderOn 1.
