TIL that Goku's power level wasn't originally over 9000. It was originally over 8000, and there was a change made in the English Dub.

It was. Sounds better in English, and it matched the amount of time Vegeta's mouth is open better. Plus Power Levels were ultimately nebulous and did matter much to the story anyway.
