If option 1 (or several options at the left side of that vote) were the
only ranked options on a ballot, it is hard to believe that not ranking
option 8 above option 6 was intended.
Regarding the majority criteria they might have voted
1------2
With Condorcet not ranking among other options is a waste of part
of your vote.
People preferring option 1 likely considered option 2 tolerable and
clearly better than options like option 6, which would result in
ballots like for example
13-----2
12-----3
12345--6
