I have a gut feeling that it's an anomaly, as all of his previous years haven't been as good, at least according to PFF:
2014 - 52.2 (37.8 pass, 59.9 run)
2015 - 62.4 (48.9 pass, 64.7 run)
2016 - 67.4 (64.2 pass, 66.7 run)
2017 - 53.7 (56.7 pass, 51.2 run)
2018 - 44.1 (48.7 pass, 42.3 run)
2019 - 60.1 (77.7 pass, 48.6 run)

2020 (40 snaps) - 75.5 (62.5 pass, 75.2 run)

I would say his "typical" performance would probably be in the low 60's overall. He seems to teeter between good run vs good pass. Only in 2016 did he do decently well at both the pass and run.

XSF is still probably better than any other OG on the roster aside from maybe Spain, but I doubt he ends up being a "good" starter. He'll probably just be serviceable. But that's ok if the rest of the line is at least serviceable or better.

Player A: Former 2nd round draft choice, never really was a full time starter, picked up by the Bengals at age 28

Player B: Former 2nd round draft choice, never really was a full time starter, picked up by the Bengals at age 29

We had/have hopes that each can provide us stability at RG.

Player B is XSF

Player A is Bobbie Williams
