The furnace has one motor. It's double-ended with a squirrel-cage blower on each end. That draws a fairly hefty amount of current. That five-hour forecast might be for the furnace only, not the heat strip.
If you re-run your test with the air-conditioner circuit breaker OFF, you may be able to test the furnace without the heat strip to confirm the consumption.
