The "as many as 1,111" number was:

But like the sibling comment says, "over 1,100" does not reference any of their resolver IPs anyways. In all likelihood, they hired fewer than the maximum of 1,111 interns and they are probably chopping slightly more than that here (max vs min).
Also it's funnier to make jokes about hiring people, than it is about firing them.
