Why Does the .bss Section Output Show a Large Value Compared to the Memory Map Output?

I'm compiling someone else's code using GCC and the output from GCC shows a large .bss section:

text  data    bss    dec9468  1080  10892  21440

I run the following command to generate information related to each section so I can try and figure out what is taking up so much space in the .bss section:

objdump -x output.elf > output.dmp

Here is the output of the sections:

As you can see the .bss section only takes up 2700 bytes. Could someone please explain how I can track down where the extra bytes are coming from? Thank you.

Also not sure if this is relevant, but I'm using an ARM Cortex-M7 processor.
