I don't know how you get so much life out of an SV tyre. My average was about half that.
I think braking and accelerating causes most of the wear on tyres. Some riders are just more aggressive than others. Also if your journey or commute includes a lot of stop/start such as city work then i guess you can expect higher wear.
