Just because a bus runs from one side of the city to the other doesn't mean all, or any, or even a significant portion of its riders are riding the entire length. This is true for almost any bus line. But if enough people are riding on a bus route on overlapping segments, then it makes sense to have one route rather than different local routes that people have to transfer between.

And just as an example, this bus makes more sense for some people than the metro for plenty of trips. Going from Adams Morgan to Eastern Market is about 30 minutes on the 90s bus. It's longer than that on the Metro when you consider that you have to walk to the metro station and probably will wait 10 minutes while changing trains.
