Nothing to do with Gimp. It is the poor base image you are using.
Bucket Fill with 'Fill similar colours'
1. Depends on where you click in the image and
2. The threshold value.
Reduce the threshold gets a better white but risks not including all of the mottled grey. See my earlier screenshot.
Learn to be flexible, not all procedures are suitable for all images. Use the Select -> Invert -> Fill procedure.
The Select -> Invert -> Fill procedure is not unknown to me; I have used it many times. The question I’m asking in this thread is how to circumvent this problem in general, when there are 100 colors in an image… can you offer any insight there? :-)
