It looks like the numbers were aggregated in someway to represent an annual dividend instead of a quarterly one. I am struggling to find the exact formula of the calculation in the reasoning behind this transformation of the numbers.

From multpl:
12-month real dividend per share — inflation adjusted February, 2020 dollars.
I think you'll find the reason there. To make it easier to see, I highlighted it in bold.
(Also, as you already noted, it appears the multpl figures are annualized, not per-quarter dividends.)
