The US has a massive trade imbalance. They buy way more than they sell and export freshly printed dollars.
I suspect the proportions of those bars are similar to the actual import flows, meaning those who import goods into the US are the ones doing the shipping.
Why? Because the US knows how badly the world needs dollars, so they can afford to just wait for stuff to be brought to them.

Yup the US shifted over the years from a net producer to a net consumer. The all mighty Fiat dollar is cracking at the seams…
