There's safe and safe. 20x the safe dose of cannabis will make you very stoned for a while, 20x the safe dose for alcohol will kill you. Similarly an overdose of vitamin D vs aspirin.
The relevant metric here is LD50 - but a quick google doesn't find a number for vitamin D. A wild guess would be that the patient in question could have died, though whether the odds were 50% we can't really say from just one case. But it means that 130000 UI daily for over a year is in the ballpark.
