Confusing Fares

I was just looking at some F fares JFK-NBO. I was surprised when I saw that 4 people was $28,000! This is similar to the offer out of DFW and SEA. I don't understand it, as it doesn't say anything about this offer out of JFK anywhere on the EK website. I wouldn't have known unless I tried to make the booking! I'm not sure when the offer expires, or anything about it.
I see one offer out of JFK, but that just says fly 2 people for the price of one, and you need to enter a code to do that, but I didn't enter any code. I used the code after I saw it and 2 people JFK-NBO is $21,000! I feel like the 4 for $28,000 is a mistake fare. Anyone have any info?

Shhhhh..... Or Emirates might try to fix it. And... its not only out of JFK, nor limited to the destinations in their list.

The only thing is, that promotion is for flights out of DFW and SEA. This out of JFK isn't stated anywhere!

Haha. I've noticed I can get 4 to SYD from JFK with a stopover in Dubai for $28,000 as well! Lets hope they don't notice it!
