I had a look there. I suspect their numbers might be based on the number of 
logs submitted for scoring, rather than the total number of participitants. 
Lots of guys on the MMTTY reflector talk about participitating, but don't 
talk about submitting their logs for scoring. I went to the ARRL site and 
tried to get a fix on the nr of submissions, but looks like I would have to 
scan the results PDF page and add them manually to get the number.

Reason I was wondering about it is that it sort of gives an estimate of the 
maximum possible score. And gives me something to shoot for if I ever get 
around to putting up a beam (hehe).
