It's because the listed damage is actually 2 separate damage instances being added together, with the elemental mod being added to each damage instance separately.

The first damage instance is the arrow impact which deals the listed Impact Puncture and Slash damage. The second damage instance is the cloud which deals only the listed Toxin damage.

When you add a single element it gets added as itself to the arrow impact but combines with the Toxin on the cloud.

So, if you add only Stormbringer the Arrow will deal Electric damage along with the Impact Puncture and Slash. Meanwhile the cloud will have it's Toxin damage become Corrosive.

When you add a combo element things can get even wierder looking because it will be added to the arrow and the cloud, but there will only be one value shown which is the sum of the damage of that element on both the arrow and the cloud.
