I'm guessing you're looking at Washington. It's not saying 3 million people are down there, that's how many endpoints they're able to track. Out of those 3 million people you currently have about half a million that are out. Washington has 7.6 million people, so wouldn't be too unusual at this point.
This is 1000% percent a LARP. You think half a million would be without power in one state and it wouldn't be in the news at all?
