The rights for usage should be much much higher. Just like recording Siri's voice and an e-learning project might have taken the same time but the usage and how many people are going to hear the voice is widely different.
Furthermore, "it only took him a minute" is akin to say to a graphic designer why pay him so much for a website that took him less than a day to do: it takes years, practice, and skill to be able to do in only a minute.
If anything, considering that a lot of people seems to recognize his voice, he should have been able to retire on this simple few words.
Just like one good jingle or one hit wonder can make their author very rich.
