I think this was for using newer PS2 keyboards with even older PCs.  I believe you need a specific Amiga adapter that will remap  PS2 keys to Amiga keyboard standards.

Doesn't the A4000 use a mini DIN connector for the keyboard?  This might allow an A4000 keyboard to be connected to an A2000.

EDIT:  Without verifying the power and gnd pinouts of the PS2 standard versus the Amiga, I wouldn't chance this.
