The first single usually gets the bigger push from the label and radio.
"Tusk" could have been propelled to the Top 10 by the fact that it was the "brand new single from Fleetwood Mac's upcoming album."

It was the novelty of the song that made it a hit. The marching band, the USC connection, the jungle chant thing, all that....
it was a hit for the same reason that a marching band plays a romp at a ball game & gets everybody on his feet & singing.
