Was surprised to receive the offer so early. In past years, I've gotten it in early Dec -- but only when I was over 90K EQM. Could that be the thresh hold for who gets EXP? There's got to be a minimum cut off.

Sounds like a mileage run is in order for you...!
In 2014 I had a health issue which kept me grounded until June and I had to be over 85 EQM before there was an offer to maintain EXP. That doesn't seem to be the case any more based on the other datapoints here.
