I think that happens most often when there are multiple copies of the book available. If 7 people turn in their books at around the same time, people 1-7 in line get the book at about the same time.
It can also happen when people take so long before returning the book that those in line ahead of you drop out of the queue--they purchase the book, for example, or they're at their borrowing limit when the book becomes available.
