You'd probably have to try that books with the stand-alone version of KindleUnpack (or at the very-least, the KindleUnpack calibre plugin). If both of those produce the same result, there could be a bug in KindleUnpack or something weird with the book.

If you'd care to try the ScrambleEbook calibre plugin, you could scramble the contents of the the original AZW3 and then share it here without any copyright concerns.

Also important: were you presented with a message about the book containing errors upon import? If so, did you answer yes or no to the offer to fix them automatically?

And what are your Sigil General Settings in the preferences. The markup in Kindlebooks can be notoriously bad, so I can't recommend importing any Kindlebooks with the "Mend XHTML Source Code" turned off (nor declining any offers to fix problems).

EDIT: Judging by the messages, I believe I own the exact same book--same fonts and images anyway. The only thing different is the filenames. I get all of the ToC (HTML and NCX) when I import it. Are you using the very latest version of KindleImport? Or was the AZW3 modified/edited by another program before trying to import it?
