Matt, I don't know why you don't want your current supervisors to hear that you might be looking for another position. That could be a major reason they would pay you more money.
Generally the two main reasons to NOT take more money is lack of stability or additional stress. It doesn't help you to make an extra $20 grand a year if that job could be gone in a year or two. And it is also not worth taking on an additional level of stress and/or demands that would effect your personal life.
In your case I don't see that there is a good reason for you NOT to take the extra money. No one would be mad at you or hold it against you if you did.
