Which version you are checking against?
Here it org-table-import docu continues:


;;;

Such files can be produced by most
spreadsheet and database applications.  If no tabs (at least one per line)
are found, lines will be split on whitespace into fields.

;;;

The initial sentence is just wrong, as TAB is only one thing tried - 
there are a lot more.
See docu of org-table-convert-region for details.
