Is there some kind of unwritten rule that states any submission with (YC W*) needs to be upvoted straight away? I'm sure if the title was "Hotels.com reaches 1 billion bookings" wouldn't get the same attention. Anyways, congratulations!
If Hotels.com had launched on HN, regularly had founders and employees interact with members here, then I think Hotels.com too would get upvoted similarly when they achieved such feats.
There are so many YC companies that if every YC company was upvoted similarly, there wouldn't be anything but YC coverage on the homepage.
