Any time someone gives me some max capacity estimate to aim for, I multiply it by 10 and design the system for that. That’s 10x developer thinking.

  That's 10x budget thinking.

    Sustained 10x usage spikes is ok to plan for, not super expensive. It is something most senior developers are pretty bad at but it is not 10x as hard just experience.

  Maybe I missed something in the article, but they do not mention any technical issues caused by the 7x number of players, they are just expressing their surprise with the game popularity. So it seems IT team followed your advice?
