Kinda gives "1%" a different ring, eh? 😅🤮

Well, that's going to be the pre-release events, and they have multiple per game store on the first day. People also tend to preorder booster boxes and pick them up on that first day, and since everything was 20% more than normal, it makes sense. It was a highly anticipated set so tons of people played that don't normally play.

But remember, MTG is a worldwide thing and has millions of active users on Magic Arena, which should give an idea of the paper popularity.
