Small amounts really when you think about the total number of Bitcoin holders out there.
Just means older coins are moving, which isn't surprising seeing how we are above 1,000 now. This doesn't even guarantee that any of them will end up on an exchange, just that they've moved. That is about all we can infer unless an exchange feels like corroborating the data somehow -- which I doubt they'd do.
So really, the story isn't that "unusual", and just points to how rarely these coins move at all, given their vintage.
