This probably won't go well unless you two are talking about the
right
terms. I believe that Michael was talking srpm numbers, where you
appear to be talking binary numbers.
The Michael gave was for binary packages in FC 6 x86_64 extras:
% GET
http://archive.fedoraproject.org/pub/archive/fedora/linux/extras/6/x86_64/ | \
fgrep '.rpm' | \
wc -l
5129
...maybe he thought that was srpms though.
