Docker network MTU different than eth0?

I was experimenting with trying to get jumbo frames to work on my network but realized it wasn't going to help me much since my main desktop PC that I connect to my Unraid server with is communicating over 802.11ac wifi.

 

So I reverted the MTU changes.

 

One thing I noticed today was that the network interfaces for the docker containers (at least that's what I think they are) show an MTU of 9014, but eth0 is back at 1500.  Not sure if this is because docker was enabled when I had the MTU changed to 9014

 

I'm assuming that they should all match.  Is it just a matter of restarting the docker daemon or something else?

 

here is output from ifconfig. Notice eth0 is MTU=1500, and most everything else is MTU=9014.
