The expected distance from his start point was a lot more than twelve parsecs, due perhaps to an asteroid field, nebula, or some such. But Han found a way through the obstacle, cutting the distance to 12 parsecs?
If Disney keeps sneaking formerly canon stuff from the expanded universe into current canon, it'll be passing closer to a black hole than any other ships making the run. A.C. Crispin describes it in her Solo trilogy. It's also the same run during which he dumps Jabba's the cargo for which Jabba places the price on his head.
