How google tracks internet location?

Let's say my real location is A. My approximate ip address location is B (Confirmed by visiting ipcorner.io). When I visited google.com in a private browsing tab, it is showing a location at the bottom with a slogan "From your Internet Address" which is C. The location B is about +400 km from A but C is only around +50 km from A which is pretty accurate. How is google finding this? Are they getting this from my router. I am connected to internet via a router with Dynamic IP. I tried this same setup with cellular network, In that instance google.com showed pretty much the same approximate ip location of ipcorner.io which is acceptable. Is getting router location possible?
