Its because they are actually very close in speed. Obito was very powerful when he faced off against Minato and showed speed & reflexes close to if not on par with Minato. If this wasnt the case minato would have run circles around him like he did with most other opponents.

Proof that Minato was using his top speed there? @Combat actually made a good argument about characters not always using their top speed. It made me think of this instance in a different light. One could argue that Minato didn't use his top speed to gauge "Madara's" abilities at that point.
