How does Replay work?
Apple uses your listening history and a fancy algorithm which logs your favorite songs, albums, and artists throughout the year. This list is then combined with several other factors to create your very own personal Replay playlist. Allowing Apple Music subscribers to stream their favorite music and listen to previous years music thanks to a smart playlist which includes the songs and top artists you have been listening to by year. Apple will generate your playlist from music played on any Apple device you have signed in to use the Apple ID associated with your Apple music account.

- The number of plays to a song, artist, album, playlist, genre and station

As your problem already worked out, there is also a minimum amount of plays and time spent listening to a song, album, or artist required to add it to your Replay playlist.
