"Several well-followed people retweeted me and that caused even more new followers and replies."

"By the end of the Tuesday, I had about 2000 new followers and twitter notifications that literally were flying by at a high speed."

"I’m now (end of Wednesday, 60 hours since the check-in counter) at 3000 more twitter followers than what I started out with this Monday morning."

Two direct references to a count, one indirect reference.

He's really just chronicling what happened while expressing astonishment at the traction the story got (and the consequences thereof).
