U know, I was once making 22 knots underwater in a Type XXI. I was rather surprised.

Supermods? I know they are historicly correct, but I recall someone saying he had his XXi got 8 kt underwater, ahead flank, no sillent running. He then restarted the game and all worked fine.

If this is a persistant thing, then... I have no idea. I'd say it's a glich or a bug.
