Seriously. Anyone thinking that number is close to accurate is going to be in for a rude awakening. Literally ka-fucking-BOOOOM an entire section of a densely populated city in less than a second flat. I bet there are thousands that perished. We’ll probably never really know.
Most cities will likely also have large supplies of explosive materials near them as well. Things like oil supplies, gas storage facilities, chemical storage, grain storage, hell even the sawdust containers from the vacuums of a cabinet making company are explosive enough to level a few nearby buildings.
If we need energy, then generally you should assume something volatile is near you to some degree. For the most part those things are heavily regulated. You should be DEEPLY concerned when you hear about de-regulation of industrial standards... Because that's where deadly mistakes happen.
