Having your home valued at $4,400,000 is what most of us would call a nice problem to have.
I'm not entirely unsympathetic since property values have skyrocketed ridiculously mostly due to the super rich and hedge funds buying up housing like it's candy.
However, these people got an assessment for doing some renovations without replacing the walls or a major overhaul of the property, then promptly added a whole second floor to the building when they said they were just replacing the roof. They gambled that the assessors wouldn't take note and lost.
Most people are echoing exactly what I would normally say so I'm going to say something that I don't see so often, if it was me in that situation I would also be pissed, not because the evaluation made it too expensive but because the tax that would be given would just be sent over to the military and none of it would be of help to me, my kids, my neighbours and my allies
