Transferring Marriott to SPG Problems

I'm trying to transfer Marriott to SPG, but when I am at the calculator box screen, it says I have much fewer points to transfer than my existing balance.
I.e. I have 200k in my account, but it only says that 20k is available for transfer. Does anyone know what's going on?

Do you have points you've received through Marriott Vacation Club? If so, those points are not transferrable between Marriott and Starwood.

Nope, they were transferred in from another friend's (regular) marriott account.

Do the "missing" points match what your friend gave you? I'm wondering if Marriott has put some kind of restriction on transferring points that you did not earn yourself.
