I remember those days, and I can assure you the online user record would have been achieved, at least in large part, by a small group of players all logging in at once with every player account they have ever played with. It was a regular "thing" people did back then.
That, and the user record was to a large part attributable to this game getting known at 4chan in some way or other, with a lot of 4chan users coming over to particracy in a very sudden rush. So sudden that Wouter even created new countries.
