He stated that the ten tails was the beginning of everything and chakra came from it, so I guess him being wrong with the gedo mazou isn't that bit of a stretch. The other possibility is that kishi couldn't keep track of the ten tail's story being changed so much The Juubi is a merger of Kaguya and the Shinju, which technically involves the two things that were the beginning of everything. It also depends on what he refers to by saying "everything", because all the pain in the world started with the Juubi. The Juubi is also the originator of chakra, because as the Juubi Jinchuriki Hagoromo spread chakra (hence the progenitor), and again its part Shinju. Not to mention Kurama is a separate identity born at Hagoromo's deathbed, and so would only have heard the story from Hagoromo, who likely started his explanation from the Juubi. After all, hagoromo still held great respect from his mother and likely didn't want the knowledge of the Chakra Chakra no mi spread since it's recreation would involve undoing everything Hagoromo did.
