It isn't always the sales volume that matters -- in this case, it might have been an indication of sustained interest. Slow, but steady sales. NTT #1 didn't get a second printing until the last couple of years, one of the longest waits ever. Without any idea what the original print run was (relative to any other book), you can't really use that as a guide. Again, it all comes down to the question of how useful the initial order estimates in determining, well, too much more than how many books might have been ordered, initially! There is so much more information, so much more context that we're just not privy to.
