They were a big distance away. No match usually starts at less than 50 meters, so traveling isn't an issue.
Not only did it fling -MADARA'S- ( note that Mads' Susanoo is not only EMS enhanced, it's also the strongest in the manga ) like a toy, but Madara was nowhere to be found for a full chapter. ( from 608's end to 609's end ).
You can debate he was just playing dead, but, meanwhile, Obito was getting pummeled

and as Obito said, Kakashi could have killed him back then.

So, seeing as how Obito is the only person who can revive Madara via Rinne Tensei, why in the world would Madara let him take heavy blows and possibly die, if he could do something against it?
It makes no sense so the only logical explanation is that Hirudora destroyed Madara's V3 and incapacitated him ( and Edo Tensei healed him ).
So, while you might not like the idea of Hirudora being stronger than Kirin, it dealt more damage to Madara than Kirin dealt to Itachi.
Unless you'd argue that Itachi's V2 > Madara's V3, Hirudora is stronger than Kirin and will have no issue whatsoever destroying Itachi's V2.
