That math misses some details. There were 30MM hits to about:home, which didn't have an email form. It just had a link to http://mozilla.org/sopa, which got about 2MM hits.
The SOPA page has a big link to the EFF. The EFF site has a tiny box where you can put your zip in to send an email.
So, with all those steps, 1.2% isn't bad. The point of Mozilla's efforts wasn't to just send mail. We were trying to educate people. And 30MM people read about SOPA.
