3 million people, each with 250k followers, amounts to a total of 750 billion follows. If every individual English speaker on the planet is in the pool of possible subscribers, then on average each one follows 750 billion / 1.5 billion = 500 of these large influencers. If you limit to only the population of the US, you're talking 750 billion follows distributed among 350 million people, which is about 2150 influencers followed per person.
Unless there's some Followers Georg out there juicing the numbers really hard, these numbers are nonsensical. In your question, these are the 250k individuals each following the same 3 million influencers.
500 "influencers" followed per person isn't that extreme? Like, if you counted up your YouTube subscriptions, Twitch follows, TikTok follows, Facebook pages, Xitter follows, Instagram follows, Patreon follows, etc., I think plenty of people could beat 500. Hell, I barely use social media and I'm probs around there
The absurd part isn't the 500 at that extreme, it's the 1.5 billion people required to make that number happen for 3 million people who claim to have over 250k followers. It's not "follow any 500 people", it's "follow 500 of these specific people".
