The West Survey does NOT show three points where JFK was hit. You're probably looking at a Robert Cutler production.
Well, actually, since the late Tom Purvis received and shared Mr. West's surveys, then no, I am not "probably looking at a Robert Cutler production".

The last two shots were at 4+65 and 4 +95.

The late Tom Purvis met with Mr. West, and received copies of all his work.

Most importantly, Mr West, per instructions, surveyed in three locations. The final two were 4 + 65 and 4 + 95.

Also CE 875, the book of photographs, mentions photographs being taken every 25 ft., excepting 5+00, as this " was about four feet from impact of third shot".
So, 4+96. Or 4+95. Pretty close. Impact of third shot.
Second impact 4+65.

Just an FYI

Surveys? I have the West Survey, dated  May 31,1964. There are no markings on it indicating shots at 4+65 or 4+95. You are referring to an altered version of the West Survey. Perhaps one altered by Purvis himself.

Obviously, the one Tim has is a forgery and the one that John has is real. 😊

It should be pointed out that a shot fired from a lower floor of the Dal-Tex Building could have narrowly missed JFK and gone on to strike the curb near Tague. A number of witnesses believed a shot or two came from the Dal-Tex Building, and, interestingly enough, a reenactment done with lasers in Dealey Plaza in 1999 found that one of the acknowledged hits on Kennedy could be traced back to a lower floor of the Dal-Tex Building. A miss from the first, second, or third floor of the Dal-Tex Building is far more plausible candidate for the cause of the curb mark than a shot from the TSBD. Just look at these photos:
