shenanigans, this ride to my knowledge (i wasn't here for last years) is run without police participation and one of the stipulations that allows it to ride through london without that is a cap on numbers.
Though many are frustrated with failing to register for the ride, do remember that critical mass and the tweed run are two totally different events, there is no "leader" for the mass or pre knowledge of the route, it is an ambling, event which has many different participants, with many different agendas, the tweed run, has sponsors, event insurance, marshals, a route known in advance and probably a load of other things to take into account which only the organisers are aware of.
