They simply picked the release date announced by Tor's mother company McMillan in its fall 2010 trade catalogue for booksellers... That date has circulated for a short while now (the fall catalogue has just been released and it's also on the MacMillan website for online consulting).
October 26 is the official planned release date at the moment, even though Tor has not yet made a public announcement about it. That they give a date they are aiming for to bookstores but are waiting for a public press release might be a sign they're waiting first for more concrete information from Harriet and Brandon that everything is on track and they will make the deadline of Mid-August.
