Many different entities use TrueCrypt to secure their files and if we assume that TrueCrypt has been compromised it would give NSA access to these files. The code base is huge and introducing small bugs which they knew how to exploit can easily slip through from individual code review. It's true that there is on going proper audit of the code, but it's a slow process and if the infiltration was done good while back they might have not been aware that audit was ever going to happen after all TrueCrypt is fairly old software.
