They didn't "make up". The truck owner purposfully tortured a homeless guy, filmed it, and uploaded it online. The homeless dude isn't stupid. He knows his life may be in danger. If this guy is willing to do car wash shit, he may be willing to do more. Out of an abundance of caution he humbles himself, plays nice, and thanks the guy; hoping that he'll be satisfied with the cruelty he's already inflicted.
You need to remember that the homeless get raped, tortured, and murdered A LOT. They are easy targets for psychopaths and serial killers, just like prostitutes.
