I think OP is saying it dropped to 2% from 100%. If you remove the "about" and think about it as an estimate, and focus on the "to"... it makes more sense: "Dropping my speed to ~2% of what it was initially".

Yes, this.

My download speed, measured after a reboot, was 50mbps. It would then drop to ~1mbps after a few days and stay there.
