As with any stat you have to look at the whole picture.
A low percentage of broken tackles is meaningless if the player can't shed blockers and get to the ball carrier enough to even attempt the tackle. All other things being equal a guy who gets to the ball carrier 60 times but misses 10 tackles is still better than a guy who just gets to the ball carrier 40 times.
