I'm not sure why it's being assumed that they detonated all of the pagers. They presumably have unique device IDs / phone numbers that can be tied to individual people. For all we know, they may have just detonated the ones known to be in use by Hezbollah operatives.

    How do we know only a tiny fraction were Hezbollah? (I don't think we know either way who owned these pagers)

    I've not seen news reports of either claim (thousands, or tiny fraction belonging to Hezbollah), but I suppose it's still early.
