Morphology

filled = fill (transparent) = fill + ed

The meaning 'supplied/completed' is the expected extension of 'to fill (an order)' plus the past-participle/adjectival '-ed'.

Etymology

Filled comes from the old verb fill, which means 'to make full' and is related to the word full. So when an order is filled, it has been 'made full' and everything needed was supplied.
