I'd always just 'understood' it too, until I started thinking about the phrase. Funny how 'blown away' implies strong impressive forces while 'blown off' immediately conjures up the image of an aphid being casually blown off someone's collar (although I guess the wind-speed from the aphid's perspective is still pretty impressive)
