You said it yourself, he only needs to call a small percentage of the time to make it more profitable to push. And there is NO WAY he will EVER lay down an ace on the river here fearing the flush (neither would I most likely - definitely not against xorbie). So it is SO easily obviously profitable. I would push 10K into this pot if I had it here. IMO, this is probably the clearest hand of an overbet being the way to go I have ever seen in my life.

Agreed. I think a very good spot to overbet is when your opponent is not likely to call a bet unless he has a very specific holding, but will call any amount. For instance, you have 4 of a kind and there is an A on board, so you think villain will only pay off any sized bet with the A boat. So you would push this every time. You don't want to bet 1/2 pot and see he likely would have stacked off.
