The reason you're seeing this is that 941 taxes cover three-month periods. The April tax you see is likely for January to March. April's pay is part of the next period (April to June), with taxes due in July. So, the tax shown is probably from earlier months, not in April.
To check where the 941 tax amount comes from, open the 941 form in QuickBooks and find the date on the form. Then, compare it with the actual paychecks to see if the dates and amounts match up. See the examples added to my screenshots below.
