Synthetics are made to last quite a bit longer, and since they require synthetic they can throw the interval up. Part of it is using filters which are way more expensive, so probably have a longer life.
I think you're crazy to wait that long though. I go on half intervals at the least and the oil coming out is quite dirty. Plus depending on the car they consume a bit, so you'll be topping it up anyway, might as well just change it.
