I am not sure that's the way it is supposed to work, but they have the data there and it makes a little sense to use it this way.
That said, take all their numbers with a grain of salt. They are making their best guess at Amazon sales but they don't actually have the data directly from Amazon saying "this is correct". It is just an educated guess and just because a book "should" have that many sales based on a given rank remember that all the books below #100,000 or so are selling less than 1 copy per day. Most of them MUCH less than 1 per day.
