Is it just the momentum and word of mouth, or are there improved features as well?

From what I know they chose that specific domain because communists have a thing for Marx and Lenin (go figure). It might have been cheap/free but I'd imagine there's other cheap free domains they decided against in favor of .ml because of the connection.

It's also that ML was a very cheap domain because Mali (the country which the TLD belongs to) was not actively policing the use of the TLD until recently.
