You misunderstood it.
Of course EGT is not going to equal CHT in an individual cylinder, that is a silly concept. Only in direct injection will the EGT and CHT be equal across the cylinders of your engine.
Fuel introduced in the intake will cause the cylinders to draw different mixture ratios as the firing order is cycled. The different fuel mixture ratio will cause each cylinder to have a different CHT and EGT from the other cylinders in the engine. This is a very common known fact for pilots as you see it every time you fly so you don't get worried when one cylinder has a temperature 100 degrees lower than another cylinder. That is just a by product of introducing fuel into the intake system instead of directly injecting it in the cylinders so the mixture can precisely metered.
