Could have taken a cash offer, or could be some list ordering issue. The gate list and the one the computer uses definitely differ, if only by tiebreaker. I rather doubt there were six GS on B fares though.

GS on Y, GS on B (I don't trust the tiebreaks), or any status in paid J who tried to standby for the flight when it was full in both cabins. NRPS could also appear that way if on standby, but very unlikely in comparison.
