Upon completing the mission, the game makes sure you will reach the levelup, so it checks your current EXP and just adds what is missing towards 2,000. The more mobs you kill, the less additional EXP is required to reach level 2, which means you get less bonus EXP in the end.

That's an interesting input.
However, you don't receive exp at all in a L1 instance. No matter if you kill mobs or just stand there the reward is the same.
