Editor: it *is* in the dict in 百尺竿頭,更盡一步, which has that second meaning.
However 百尺竿頭 appears to be an independent Buddhist expression, which is used in that idiom; the idiom only has the extended sense (TTBOMK).
Diff:
# 百尺竿頭 百尺竿头 [bai3 chi3 gan1 tou2] /to be at the highest level of enlightenment (Buddhist proverb)/to keep progressing even after achieving success/
+ 百尺竿頭 百尺竿头 [bai3 chi3 gan1 tou2] /to be at the highest level of enlightenment (Buddhist expression)/
