When my Xerox Story was hit last year (http://www.dkriesel.com/en/blog/2013/0802_xerox-workcentres_are_switching_written_numbers_when_scanning http://www.dkriesel.com/en/blog/2013/0802_xerox-workcentres_...) I got about 200k hits in two days, at peaks reaching about 10k per hour. All numbers are from google analytics so real values might be higher. Also, it's not only hn, consider also the follow-ups (in my case, shortly after hn, the front pages of slashdot and reddit hit me as well).
