10k on first front/rear diff fluid change then every 15k after that, the first one may have some metal on the magnet from the wear in of the gears so it makes sense why they suggest to do it early I'd just wait til 10k and do the front/rear diff fluid and transfer case fluid then another 10k (at 20k) do the transmission fluid and filter.
