A lot of times, writers use hugely inflated numbers to increase the scope of a battle. After all, writers before them wrote of 75,000 on each side or so. Since this would have been the biggest battle he ever saw, he may have inflated the numbers to reflect that.<br>
<br>
Also, if he was hostile to Constantine, and Constantine was outnumbered, then he probably inflated Constantine's numbers to make the side he supported look better, since he probably inflated their numbers accordingly.<br>
<br>
But then again, I could just be full of it too <br>
