> 10 percent of its current age.

1.4 billion years is still a relatively long time, historically speaking. And supermassive black holes were very few and small even that long after the birth of the universe.

Yes, dark matter is probably responsible for drawing together enough matter to form the first stars, and the largest of these exploded to form black holes.
