If the bin file was in the same folder as the chk file, you didn’t need to install it.
I’m moving his to the correct forum, the Broadcom section.
There are a lot of posts there about this unit.

I have an R6400v1 as well.
If you can log into DD-WRT and it works, then you should be fine.

The chk file is for installing DD-WRT from stock firmware. The bin file is for installing DD-WRT from DD-WRT.
You installed DD-WRT with the chk, then reinstalled DD-WRT with the bin.

Seems like this happens a lot.
