Leaked data from Chinese military commission reports initial outbreak in China as high as 640k, if not higher.
Although closer, there's no way I believe 640k is the real number either. China is 5 times the US population (with 5 times as many people per Sq KM), with massive urban centers larger than New York. Looking here at the data from some of the harder hit areas (https://www.statista.com/chart/21176/covid-19-infection-density-in-countries-most-total-cases/), there's about 4000 cases per million residents. That would put China's total COVID-19 infections at 5.5 million.
