the reason for this is because the share permissions are only for the share. That means that the users have access to the share meaning that they can see the share. The security tab or option is the one that actually lets them use the files. ( the share is kind of giving someone permissions to look at a house and take pictures of it, when the security permissions are the ones that would actually let someone go inside of the house) This is kind of a lame example but I hope it helps. I don't know the microsoft, technical answer to your question but this is the way I understand it.

Mr Pena, was correct in stating that the permission are 2 folded.
One set of permissons ( shares ) allows ACCESS to the resource on the server.
The NTFS permission define what can be done with that resource.
Therefore with an NT share youhave 2 levels of control. Access to the share and access to the files/folders that are contained in the share.
Good Luck!
