well you'd need some more parameters, like a single tram isn't going to carry as many people as the entire freeway, simply because the freeway is extremely absurdly disgustingly long.
But one tram fitting all the people in this photo? maybe, i'd say probably 2 trams, with the average number of people in a car being 1.5 and i think the tram pictured is a Melbourne class E which fits ~200 people. But bear in mind i'm dogshit at visual measurement so maybe i'm completely wrong and that's actually only 50 cars or it's 5 billion cars.
