If you used the Radiometric Calibration tool to calculate the first reflectance image, then that result would show Top-of-Atmosphere reflectance. That correction doesn't know about or correct for anything related to the atmosphere. QUAC is an atmospheric correction, so the results from it would show surface reflectance (reflectance without the atmosphere).
Also, remember that the scale for reflectance values is 0 to 100. So a value of 0 is not really wildly different than a value of 5. They are both quite small reflectance values (i.e., indicating low reflectance, and a dark object).
