This seems far to high/extreme to be possible.

If there were THAT many civilizations on our galaxy alone at least a few would have to have evolved to the point of being able to visit us, or somehow communicate with us.

Or we would see signs of them as they colonize the stars.

His values are FAR too high. It doesn't make logical sense at all.
