Ancestry do multiple indexes for events.  The death indexed is for John D. CAMPBELL, 1910 Kogarah, NSW, parents John and Mary.  You can tell if it is a multiple index by the fact that there are no other details.

 Per Debra's comment  -  https://familyhistory.bdm.nsw.gov.au/lifelink/familyhistory/search - Death - CAMPBELL, JOHN D - NSW BDM 5795/1910 - F = JOHN, M = MARY - KOGARAH.  Ryerson Index may give you a lead to Trove which may have more details. FamilySearch also worth a look as they have extensive free document bank.  Cheers Neil
