You seem to have ignored the holiday sales push. Those titles were released nowhere near the holidays.
Besides, Uncharted is practically the only big title left coming out for the PS3 this year. A lot of PS3s will be sold this holiday season and Uncharted has the benefit of being the only highly-hyped PS3 title this holiday period.
We also still lack knowledge regarding the game's quality which Lair and Heavenly Sword did poorly on. Granted that R&C was critically-acclaimed, again, there's the "kiddy" image that it has going which does affect sales unrightfully.
Also, the sales of the two games you mentioned are monthly US sales. Although they contribute to the worldwide sales, they may not matter as much given that the US is the PS3's worst performing region.
I'm not contending that 1.5M may be a bit high and it most probably is. I simply voiced out my opinions which you may have overlooked.
