Interesting, but not surprising given it is a natural product. I would think that cigarettes would have higher concentrations of microbes due to the tobacco being chopped up and homogenization (think hamburger vs steak). It's possible that long-filler cigars would have lower levels due to this effect. I'm surprised that they haven't tried to plate them out yet.
