Yeah and we know it is over 3 billion because security researchers from the university of Vienna could read that in one go from one source ip address without encountering any rate limiting:

"phone number, public keys, timestamps, and, if set to public, about text and profile picture. From these data points, the researchers were able to extract additional information, which allowed them to infer a user's operating system, account age, as well as the number of linked companion devices."
