Well, Unity is the default desktop/what most users are running, so yes we look in priority to bugs that affect it.
Canonical is also paying people to work on Unity where GNOME is community maintained (though we help fixing issues when we can)
The user numbers are only one metric, those numbers are low, the importance of the other bug is High due to the fact that it's a segfault an not only an usability issue...
