That's simply because each regional is allocated 6 slots and a maximum of 3 wildcards regardless of size and once a team has won, winning again at another event can prevent another team from going to St. Louis.

A week 1 regional will always send 6 teams to worlds regardless of size.

Last year, North Star in Minneapolis (week 6) sent two new teams out of 60 teams attending to worlds.
The 2015 North Star regional sent 967 and 2531 to champs because of the wildcard system, so North star sent 4 new teams to champs: 2491, 5576, 967, and 2531. 10k sent 6 new teams to champs: 2502, 3184, 5515, 2052, 4536, 4198.
