The agent might have meant that the cabin has a capacity of (for example) 12 passengers and 12 are already booked in the cabin. ExpertFlyer reporting "J2" means that DL is willing to sell 2 more seats, even if that results in overbooking. (That might be why you got some pushback.) After you were booked into J, I would have expected EF to report "J1".
