Norm MacDonald explained that it was a bargaining deal:

Terrorist Leader: Normahmed, we need you to be a suicide bomber.
Normahmed Terrorist: Now wait a minute, what do I get if I do this?
Terrorist Leader: You get a virgin in heaven!
Normahmed Terrorist: Only one? How about 100?
Terrorist Leader: That's too many. 50
Normahmed Terrorist: 80
Terrorist Leader: 72
Normahmed Terrorist: 72?
Terrorist Leader: 72
Normahmed Terrorist: OK, 72
