According to the ArchWiki, the dd block size could be larger than

wiping the last blocks if a larger block size is used. How could
I prevent this or make sure everything is overwritten?

You don't need to worry about that. dd will write the final, partial
block, and the final report will say "xxxx+1 records out", indicating
that 1 partial block was written.
