EDIT: I may have seem to misread it a little, I think you meant it was below 60k? Still, 27k is nowhere near the range of below 60k, under 30k would be better.
The Blu-Rays are the figure you're quoting. There was a Limited Edition release in DVD format that was nearly 40k from memory. That's how you get your 60k. The reason you wouldn't have seen them on the annual lists you linked were because Oricon didn't list the DVD list much beyond that Gundam UC #3 amount. There was a list a lot earlier in the year that would have Garden of Sinners's DVD sales.

Yes, a lot of titles don't sell much on DVD anymore but some do and it's worth looking out for them. Gintama is DVD only but still has good sales. Hatsukoi and Durarara also had a lot of sales in DVD.
