Despite its name, the "Target Milestone" field is usually left unset

version of Firefox Nightly that was fixed (e.g. Nightly 33 is
"mozilla33"). Even if a bug fix is uplifted from Nightly 33 to, say,
Beta 31, the "Target Milestone" would stay "mozilla33", not "mozilla
31". There must have been a good reason for this at some time, but it's
hard to say for certain.. :)

It's been that way since before status flags even existed. I think it's still useful for archeology purposes to keep "this is when it landed on trunk" separate from "this is what branches it was uplifted to."
