I had not run the script per se, I had run ANALYZE. I just re-upgraded to a separate cluster and ran the provided script. The query still takes about 500ms.

Did you do?:
https://www.postgresql.org/docs/12/pgupgrade.html
14. Statistics
Because optimizer statistics are not transferred by pg_upgrade, you will
be instructed to run a command to regenerate that information at the end
of the upgrade. You might need to set connection parameters to match
your new cluster.
