Brake fluid overdue "since 12/2001"

My 2016 bmw 528i at about 40k miles showed this today. Says due since December 2001 which makes no sense at all. Should I just replace the brake fluid myself or would the dealer just take care of it

I recently had my vehicle at the dealer for service. The did an update which reset the oil change clock to say 12/2001. When I changed my oil I had to set for 01/2021
