Well, we stipulated three meals and snacking, and you've accounted for it already with just the meals! Say you also like potato chips and dip, and want to eat a bag of chips with a can of dip between lunch and dinner, and then after dinner. If that's all the snacking you do, you've added another 4500-5000 calories just in snacks.
Could you sit down tomorrow and eat all that? Of course, you probably couldn't, if you don't eat nearly that much now. But it's not hard to get there if you start eating because you're bored, or because you want to make yourself feel better, or whatever. Over the weeks or months, "I'll just have a little more this time so that eating lasts longer and is more enjoyable" pushes the amounts up until the calorie counts here seem only excessive, rather than completely bizarre.
