Most likely, when you obtained your first bonus box, you were not at 12,000 goo exactly. Sometimes the addition of gremlin goo from neighbors kicks in or you were visiting neighbors where you went above 12,000 goo. When you returned to your Springfield you were awarded the bonus box. But the amount you were above 12,000 goo was NOT applied to the next bonus box. Instead, you start again at zero and work your way up to 2000 goo.
In other words, your total goo may say 22,130, but you could very well be at 0 of 2000 for your next bonus. Does that make sense?
To further clarify, although you hit 20,000 goo, you were still 197 goo shy of that 2000 mark for the bonus. Hence, you received the bonus only when you reached a total of 20,197 goo.
And if it seems odd, I agree - but that's the way it is.
