You can make of scriptable options like so:

const yVal = 12;
const primeCrolor = "green";
const secondColor = "red"

const options = {
  type: 'bar',
  data: {
    labels: ["Red", "Blue", "Yellow", "Green", "Purple", "Orange"],
    datasets: [{
      label: '# of Votes',
      data: [12, 19, 3, 5, 2, 3],
      backgroundColor: (ctx) => {
        if (!ctx.parsed) {
          return secondColor
        }
        const allTicks = ctx.chart.scales.y.ticks.map(e => e.value);
        return (allTicks.includes(yVal) && ctx.parsed.y === yVal) ? primeCrolor : secondColor;
      }
    }]
  },
  options: {
    // Scale config only needed for example to force the correct labels
    scales: {
      y: {
        min: 0,
        max: 20,
        ticks: {
          stepSize: 2
        }
      }
    }
  }
}

const ctx = document.getElementById('chartJSContainer').getContext('2d');
new Chart(ctx, options);
