ROM:0000780C mulu.w #$20,d0
ROM:00007810 cmpi.w #0,4(a6,d0.w)
ROM:00007816 bne.w loc_792A
ROM:0000781A cmpi.w #2,(word_FF0042).l Compare 2 with current level map number
ROM:00007822 beq.w loc_7836 If level map number is 2, branch
ROM:00007826 cmpi.w #5,(word_FF0042).l Compare 5 with current level map number
ROM:0000782E beq.w loc_7836 If level map number is 5, branch
ROM:00007832 bra.w loc_7842

As you can clearly see, level map number 2 and 5 are respectively the Level 1-1 bonus, and the Level 1-2 bonus. This makes the level not restart after exiting out of this level and returning to the main one, making it appear as a single level. Adding another level to the list should be as simple as adding a cmp instruction and branching accordingly.
