I think "hundreds of thousands and even millions" is a bit of a stretch. Wikimedia's annual report mentions donors at a level of "$50,000+", and I'm guessing most of those are probably closer to 50,000 than to 100,000. Tbf I suppose that's over just one year, so perhaps your statement isn't entirely inaccurate.
