The Democrats seized on Trump's mention of $2000 checks and started campaigning on that. This was before the $600 was passed. Once the $600 was passed and signed into law, the Democrats didn't abruptly switch their messaging to say $1400, because that would've incredibly stupid politics in the middle of the campaign, and likely trusted that most sensible people would understand they were talking about the same $2000 all along, which would mean a $1400 increase.
