The bug that led to the creation of the duplicates has now been fixed. So it won't happen in the future.
Now, you could edit the JSON, but I wouldn't recommend. There is a safer way:
1) Select the books and use the 'Mark selected books' button
2) In the calibre book list, change the 'status date' to a different value
3) Open the 'Edit reading goal' dialog and delete the duplicate
4) Change back the date
In case there is just too many duplicates and you want to use regex directly on the the JSON, just be sure to create a backup before. A malformed JSON can lead to blanking the database.
