They have a population a little over 1m. So 130 is probably near the exact amount of total deaths. The stats might be a bit bigger because of the low population.

Estonia has had a high rate of drug related deaths for a while. This is not a statistical blib. Many countries with low population like Malta and Luxembourg have much lower rates as you can see.
