No, just one file, as per the Calibre converter. It's not a long book (60k words) and I read somewhere recently that the performance of all but the oldest of Kindles is good enough for that size of document not to be a problem performance-wise.
I had all but given up on using top-margins until I tried the latest DOCX calibre converter. It's a quirky workaround to the lack of real top-margin support, but seems to work well with the devices I have tested it on. It also preserves empty paragraphs (blank lines in Word) which gives you a lazy (and probably not recommended) way to pad out the front matter pages, like the dedication and quotation pages.
