You may want to re-read the section on scaling durations. Math is used to force
lilypond to make a note take up the mathematically appropriate amount of time
and space using the note duration you specify. So c4*x will always produce a
quarter note whose horizontal space takes up the value specified by x.
Accordingly, c1*4 produces a whole note whose horizontal space is equivalent to
4 whole notes, which is exactly what you get.
