Most systems are designed to run at near capacity, like the electrical grid or the cities supply of water. They are running close to 100% all the time - so when something like this happens we don't need to stop all water usage, but everyone saving 50-100 L of water this morning by not showering and avoiding dishwashers / washing machines x 100,000 households is actual a pretty significant number and enough to bring the demand down below 100% again, even with reduced supply.
