Motorway exit instruction shows current road ref instead of destination

Here's an example I've seen a few times now: Going on the M25 South, having to exit onto the A30. But ME shows the "M25" sign in the instructions.

I've checked OSM and the data looks sound to me.

It has destination:ref=A30 yet ME seems to show the ref=M25 instead.
