Indeed.com lists the average police officer salary in the states as $74k after ten years of service. Provided a 40h work week, that’s $35.50 per hour.
Even if OT wages were double ($71 per hour), to make an additional $400k would require 5,600 hours of OT work. Or 108 hours of OT a week. Or 15 OT hours a day.

It says "some", you have to think that special units pay more too, as do higher ranks. So "some" making upwards of 500k isn't really surprising.
