Is there anything in the two unused "hand spaces" in Super Mario 3's world 8?

Is there anything in the two unused "hand spaces" in Super Mario 3's world 8? - Top view of crop anonymous person holding toy airplane on colorful world map drawn on chalkboard

The second screen of World 8 contains five special spaces that have a chance of pulling Mario into them for a very short level, upon which he's rewarded with an item.

World 8's second screen

Two of these spaces (the second and fourth ones) are unreachable through normal means, since Mario moves two spaces per press of the dpad. He'll always skip over them.

Say I game-genied Mario so that he only moves one space at a time. Would I ever encounter anything in the two unreachable slots?
