If that figure is correct for real money games, it would mean that 100 high volume players averaging 25k hands per month would account for better than 1/60th of the Party/Skins total hand count for the year.
500 high volume players at that level woud constitute more than 1/12th of the total hand count for the year.
1000 high volume players would make up more than 1/6th of the Party/skins total hand count.
Are there that many high volume players out there?
Is there anything wrong with the way I am looking at this?

You're multiply counting hands that these high volume players play against each other, and if these players play as many hands as you speculate the probability of them playing against each other isnt so tiny.
Example, if you have 10 high volume players playing 25k hands/month, but they play them all at one table against each other, then that's not really 250k hands played but 25k hands instead. Obviously this is the extreme case but you get the idea.
