The answer to this question is always "infinite" because that's how mathematical impossibility works.
If you mean improbable, however, then it's a little more subjective.
This also isn't even unusual. The Senate was split 53:47 at the time Q made this post. The current vote included 3 Rs with the 50 democrats, 53:47 in favor of advancing the nomination. It was always going to be close, and close with these ratios is going to range from 50:50 to 53:47 or 55:45 really often.
"A statistical impossibility is a probability that is so low as to not be worthy of mentioning. Sometimes it is quoted as 10−50 although the cutoff is inherently arbitrary. Although not truly impossible the probability is low enough so as to not bear mention in a rational, reasonable argument."
