Did the term NPC at some point change to be pretend humans in towns or something?

Yeah, I generally read "NPC" as non-hostile entities you can interact with. As opposed to saying "mobs" for hostile npc's. Yes, they are all npc's in a literal sense, since they're not the player.

Anyone make a mod that add more friendlies?
