I thought it was like this :
- If the transport is hit (and destroyed), all transported units have a
chance to get out on a roll of 4+. If they don't get out, they get a hit.
Transported units with a save can use their save roll to see if they
survive that hit.

So : The Land Raider with the two Terminator stands is blown up. Each
Terminator stand has a 4+ chance of getting out with a scratch. The first
one gets out safely, but they second one gets hurt (he fails his roll to get
out safely). This results in him getting a hit, so now he can see if he
survives that hit by using his Save (also on a 4+).

Hope this explains it...
