They explained on CNN it's not just based on the actual votes but also on the exit polling and the potential error swing in them. Most of the states that were called in cases like that were supposedly once where the exit polling showed a fairly huge gap between them.
It's still bullshit but they aren't doing it just on 1% of the votes, but on the exit polling and "other information received" as they stated on CNN.
