Yeah, it is weird.

I just requalified for Silver. Along with what I have already accumulated this year. I upgraded my paid eco ticket from LAX > TXL two weeks ago to business using miles (BUS J) and they credited me some 18k for the journey. (Was pretty sure you don't collect miles after upgrading with miles, even states so in their T&C's, unless I am misunderstanding)

So the 25k "Status Miles Received" makes sense.
