Less is more when it comes to link exchange!
were you exchanging recip links (A-B, B-A)? were your link texts unrelated to your domain name and repetitive? what was the overall quality of linkbacks? what's their link portfolio? is it possible that some your linking partners got deindexed or penalized? wasn't it easier to contact your linking partners to remove your links before doing disavow?

there's just too many factors that need to be accounted before making any real conclusions.
