How is Cloudflare's public DNS (1.1.1.1) so fast?

I can ping 1.1.1.1 in < 1ms, Google's DNS is 14ms, OpenDNS is 14ms, Quad9 is 45ms, . This is across AT&T fiber. Do they have better peering agreements or what? Just a coincidence they have a better peering agreement on ATT's network near me?

I trust Google's DNS more so that's what I use, but I'm just curious.
