I think higher than that in UK. SBs were sold in the likes of Currys for a period as well as John Lewis etc. I think perhaps a couple of hundred thousand. If you scanned the internet for port 9000 and then multiplied the result by 100 on the basis that only 1% of people have open ports would that give us a clue or do we think 1% is too low? I'm not really advocating that but I do remember a post where someone did just that and came back with an enormous number.
