Have you double check your test results with another test kit or at a store. Whenever I get a weird result I retest, if it's still odd I try a different kit to verify.
If it was an overdose then turning the return pump off and dosing small amount muriatic acid very slowly, right at the water level, to a lifeless section of the sump will lower it better and have a smaller impact on overall ph. By not allowing the acid to mix right up in the water and pool in one area it will chew through the alk in that chamber. Depending on the size of your system I would start slow and with small amounts, let it sit for 10 minutes, turn the pump back on and test again after an hour or two.
I also wouldn't drop it lower than 10 to 11dkh and let the rest drop naturally. You also don't want to add the acid into a chamber that has rock in it. You want it to react with the water and not anything else.
If your not willing to try it this way in your sump you can do it to a fresh batch of water in your mixing container to lower the alk before doing a change. Just make sure the water has had time to settle out before adding the acid. You want the water still with no currents so it can sit concentrated in the water column.
