Maybe a silly question but anyway -
Which is better ? Opinions please.

Me today as single rider - average speed of 17.5mph over 72 miles
or
One of a group of 16 riders with group average of 20mph

Elevation gain about the same at 3000ft

Someone who can ride 17.5 mph over 72 miles wouldn't be asking the question that you've asked.

Would someone who achieved that have to be professional/clued up then? I'm guessing it's not possible to achieve that on your own?

How much work did you do in the group? As we've read 'better' is open to interpretation but if you sat at the back back for the duration without coming to do a turn at the front then on balance you probably got more fitness benefit on your solo ride.
