Yeah, I agree, TSOANM isn't really about a death march.
I am abusing the term. I worked on some death marches with guys who saw themselves as Tom West though, which is probably why I chose that phrase.
A death march, to me, is a project that you know can't succeed but you are forced to go forward anyway.
I once had a boss hold the team at work until a piece of work was done (and it was 2am before it was clear it wasn't going to happen). That was just one day, but that project was a death march.
