Non-duplicated viewers? Or just the same 3.67 million viewers tuning in ten times, six minutes at a time, over the course of the 15 hours? These "millions of people tuned in to at least part of" numbers are always a bit suspect but in this case, with no average viewership stated, it is practically meaningless.

Plus you also had the baseball to contend with Yankees/Red Sox. I haven't looked at but I'm guessing the NBA playoff numbers are bad.
