The description of your steps is not realistic. You edit the .config inside BUILD but you have still not run anything which creates the files inside BUILD (you have no rpmbuild -bp and the src.rpm installation is missing too). The rpmbuild -bb will create the BUILD stuff, but this is after your modifications, so they can't survive. I think you are actually modifying something and building something else. If you are interested in understanding, start again from zero (rm -rf rpmbuild), do every step and paste here the entire shell session. Be investigative on the effect of every step: what has been created? did the resulting rpm have a different size from the normal SMP one?
