Really? I could have sworn that his father's percentage was
lower, as were Carter's and Ford's. And probably numerous
others.

The definition below is from www.dictionary.com. See #3 for his meaning when
he said "lowest in history for an incumbent."
W's father, Carter and Ford, according to www.whitehouse.gov, only served
one term so none of them were incumbents. They may have moved up from being
Vice President to President but that doesn't put them in the same category.
Apparently their low percentage didn't hold up four years later.

3.. Currently holding a specified office: the incumbent mayor.
