Drive 3000 miles and earn 3000 dollars?

I leased a Lexus NX 300 in Aug 2021.
So far I have spent 5600 on the car. (7 monthly payment of 480, and 1700 to ship the car from dealer to my house, 500 broker fee)

I have driven it for 3300 miles. No accident.
Carmax is now offer me 46000 USD to sell the car to them. My payoff shown on Lexus financial website is 37400.

Does that mean I can net 46000-37400 = 8600 if I sell to carmax? Is there any additional fee charged by Lexus that is not explicitly stated?

Does it also mean I drove 3000 miles and earn 3000 dollars? That seems hard to turn down to me. Given the car Msrp is only 45500.

Question is what to get next? I am thinking of get an Camry or accord at MSRP, and keep that until the market is back to show rationale. Any better ideas?
