This is due to the legendary reputation of "the shit", which is distinct from the ordinary "shit" we are all familiar with.

"The shit" has rarely ever been so equaled by a living being that its use is usually correlated with great admiration and flattery.

In some convoluted terminology, "the shit" can be referred to simply as "shit" confusing it with its inferior cousin.
