Bit of a jump. List order 10 (a single order of magnitude) applications, jump to three orders of magnitude, multiply by the order of the population (the second step is reasonable). What's the difference between 10 and 1000? About 1000. It's an interesting Fermi problem, definitely they establish >10^10 as reasonable. A couple of orders of magnitude is semi-forgivable, but debatable. I would say more possible than likely. "There may already be >1e12 SQLite databases on Earth."
