Keep in mind that a back division with a small growth (now 6" tall BTW) is going to get a better head start than one you tear off during repotting with no growth, right?
When the rhizome is cut, sometimes the lead division will continue to throw one growth, sometimes, as in this case, three. Did my cut induce the front division to do that or was the plant finally mature enough or finally happy enough to put out additional growths? Regardless, don't multi-growths often mean multi-blooms in the future? Isn't that a good thing?
