I don't think it's the #1 for ALL conservatives, but for many it appears that it is.
In their defense, if you genuinely believe a baby is being murdered are you not obligated to place a heavy emphasis on that issue?
Now obviously most social conservatives exaggerate their conviction on this issue given that nobody who ACTUALLY believes someone is being murdered just sits around and complains about it, but in theory their outrage is justifiable.

Good point considering I've heard it argued many times on this board that anyone who is anti-abortion is actually just making up "fake outrage" for the sake of sticking it to them or something. You really can't win.

Absolutely, and it was not a criticism of them for it being their #1 issue.
Though I lean left on most everything else, I'm actually against abortion. It's just not something that's very high on my list of important issues.
