Those entrances were referred to by the same name, because they were purposefully short and narrow, making it a difficult pinch point for attackers, and easier to defend.
The large size of a camel meant that they were required to enter on their knees... difficult, but obedient animals could do it if they humbled themselves to the proper position.

Also wouldn't make sense that the disciples follow up question is, "then who can be saved?" Humility is good, but salvation is though Christ alone, that's why he calls it impossible.

Some may not like his style and that’s fine, there’s a preacher out there that everyone can relate too. The main thing with any preaching is that it’s based on the Word and not man.
