What does this command say? -
wc export.hash

Of course, nothing would be found when the hashes are misdetected as
tripcode. You may try "--format=gpg" as one of the warnings suggests.
However, this doesn't explain why you have so many lines in that file.
Did you possibly copy-paste it from another machine and inadvertently
introduced many linefeeds?

I don't know. Maybe someone else will address this question.
But first you need to make sure you don't corrupt the file between the
gpg2john and the john invocations, as right now it looks like you did.
Of course, I could be wrong in my guess.
