It's an indicator.
So, I already know you didn't watch the whole video because you replied in 4 minutes, when the video is about 10 minutes long if you skip through side rants and whatnot.
But since you didn't want to watch, I'll give you the important bits here:
"Benford's Law only holds if your data covers [...] several orders of magnitude."
"98.7% of all precinct vote totals was a 3 digit number. This is the opposite of several orders of magnitude."
"It is not simply that Benford's Law occasionally judges a fraudulent election fair or a fair election fraudulent. Its 'success rate' is essentially equivalent to a toss of a coin, thereby rendering it problematic at best as a forensic tool and wholly misleading at worst."
The point is that Benford's Law wasn't being used as an election fraud indicator because Benford's Law doesn't apply to that dataset. They don't fail to fit Benford's Law, because Benford's Law doesn't say anything about this kind of dataset.
Someone who didn't know what they were talking about, who didn't care about the truth, used the false claim of "Biden's votes don't fit Benford's Law" to push a narrative, or in many cases just straight up say "This is undeniable proof of election fraud," and you then copied that here to try to spread it.
Just like the misinformation (or fake news, whatever you want to call it) was spread to all of these websites:

and likely many others. Just look at the comments and you can see how many people have been misled by this:
From the youtube video:
labsub: "They are not interested in truth, they are only interested in concealing it."
Paddy C: "This is going to be the first election that's going to be unraveled by Reddit, and Pepe Army." (unrelated but funny)
From gnews:
BuffaloBull: "Like if they’d care wit whatever violates whatsoever… PFF "
T: "Claims that the number set is too small are erroneous. Be Ford’s Law is used to detect tax evasion. The numbers of voters are in fact similar to those individuals paying tax. So the claim that the application of Be Ford’s Law to vote fraud cannot be applied is false."
(Confidently incorrect)
A nice logical comment for once:
dnick: "These types of distributions work on large, natural datasets, but not on small subsets or ones that are influenced by certain factors."
And a very silly reply: "They seem to be working just fine on all the other candidates. You have a hole in your logic the size of one of those vans marked Biden/Harris on the side that were spotted by witnesses unloading numerous cartons of emergency “ballots”"
From thegatewaypundit:
THE RED PILL: "ANYONE censoring this information is HIDING the truth. WHY WOULD HARD SCIENCE BE CENSORED?????"
Quondam Que: "What I find very curious is the super low numbers of trolls here gloating. Almost like they know they got busted."
ZooomZooom: "Benford’s Law + Occam's Razor = Annoying Orange DOMINATED."
hasinbinsober: "It's useless to use numbers with the people who calculate 1 male and
1 female and come up with 52+ genders." (One Joke)
Patriotic Gecko: "Democrats, so much for the party of science."
(And so on... this had by far the most comments that I could see)
rightnation.us:
E Van der Vliet: "I shared this is on Twitter and they suspended my account for 12 hours. I shared this on Facebook and they deleted it. They sure don’t want people talking about election anomalies. Which gets more and more people talking about election anomalies."
ThePatriot: "Can't have the masses knowing the truth.
"
