1099 R for 401A

Hello!

I took an early withdrawal from my 401a (the full amount  ($121,044) with no special circumstances,  I am retired at 52 ), and did not roll it over to an IRA, but deposited it into my personal bank account.

My questions are:

1. My 401a plan distributor took 20% for federal taxes, is that the normal percentage to take?

2. After entering my 1099R for my 401a on turbo tax, it said I owed additional $8,251 more. Why is that?

3. Is there another penalty fee associated with this (aside from the 20%) from the IRS?

Thank you for your help!
