I might be mistaken, but to me it looks as if these two keywords have different match types: "1031 exchange" is a phrase keyword, and [1031 exchange] is an exact match keyword. You can get this information out of the KEYWORD_PERFORMANCE_REPORT by including the "KeywordMatchType" field. Hope this helps.
