Default Queen Palm - Seed Pods

We have two queen palms that have been in the ground for four years. Never had the golden seed pods til just recently. On the larger tree, we have already cut down two pods (one bloomed, the other in the husk) and looks like there are two more pods growing. I guess I am surprised to have four concurrent pods on one tree. The smaller tree had one pod still in the husk that we have cut down.

For those of you with a green thumb or more experience with queens....is this unusual? Any other explanation? I've looked at a couple of websites but haven't come across any discussion on multiple pods.
