That was the total SAR for the entire cross section, not the specified tissue in question (2 orders of magnitude). Additionally, nearly everyone is in close proximity to multiple sources of EMF not their own phone solely. Working in an office with ten other people that has installed a cell phone tower will likely provide substantial EMF (2 orders of magnitude). 5G bands require much higher density tower placement due to the reduced effective range of mm wave. These all have overlap and are not being tested in any way after installation. There's clearly an effect. The question becomes how much of an effect are we currently living with and what are the limits that should be adopted.

As others have noted, scaling 4W/kg up to humans gives a heat input ~4 times what human office worker's base metabolic rate provides. It would be profoundly obvious if all those more-distant sources were actually pumping that much energy into office workers. 10% of 4W/kg would be close to the BMR heat input in many workers such as older women. At even 2% of 4W/kg, it would probably be cheaper to install Faraday cages around office buildings (bridged by low-power-inside repeaters) than it would be to pay the electric bills for increased AC use (needed to get office workers comfortable enough to be productive). Yes, there is health & safety research that needs to be done here. This particular study (mega-dose, low n, mice) is part of that. It's easily repeated at other frequencies, to compare effects. My prior comment suggested looking at a human population already receiving far-higher does of cell phone EMF. If you wanted a small control group, there's Green Bank ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Green_Bank%2C_West_Virginia#National_Radio_Quiet_Zone https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Green_Bank%2C_West_Virginia#Na... ).
