I just read that Wikipedia page. Someone's already changed it to 4500.

No citation and nothing in the body that supports an actual number like that.

Someone is playing games. I would not consider that page particularly reliable, at the moment.

Edit: I didn't see any edit log for the number change, so maybe the poster changed it just for his comment and the math. However, still no actual citation supporting either number.
