Actually there were five elephants, but one lost its footing, entered an unstable orbit and came hurtling through space, smashing into the Disc and causing the mountains to rise.
Crap, I have to reread the series now and appreciate "The Fifth Elephant." Didn't that elephant also cause huge crystalized fat deposits to happen deep in the disc?
