Draw.
Is the computer having a laugh? Why is the computer so bad at the endgame, and is it really just coincidence that it ended the game in such an interesting way?
50 moves without a pawn move or a capture is a draw under the rules.
In this case, the draw rule appears to have superceded the checkmate.
