Trademarks are not all encompassing things. They pretty much only apply in similar businesses. For example, there's a restaurant chain called "Red Robin" and a comic book character of the same name.
Lucasfilm, if it has such a trademark, probably only holds it for entertainment purposes. However, since droid is essentially a shortened form of the common word android, it may not be trademarkable.
