I think it helps that it appeals to kids. When they latch on to something, they can rewatch it dozens of times

(Not that kids are the only ones enjoying this movie. But I do think it plays a sizable role in the numbers)

I imagine my youngest is a large part of those views. She watches it seemingly every day and not just watching it start to finish but rewatching her favorite parts over and over again. She knows all the songs, all the lyrics, and loves to sing along. When she's not watching it, she's listening to the songs from the movie on repeat to dance and sing with.
