One of the current mysteries for the accounts department at my day job (educational technician) is trying to work out who ordered eight tubs of 250 six-sided dice. They don't show up on any order, so someone presumably entered the wrong order code, at our end or the suppliers - it'll probably turn out we wanted eight packs of pencils or something. Unfortunately it's our biggest supplier, and the delivery note has gone missing, so it could be pretty much any department - I'm fairly sure it isn't me, but that's about all.

But I can't help wondering if any game could ever use so many dice for real. Maybe Champions, if someone used their rules to stat something like Galactus, but I doubt it. Some sort of war game?

Part of some attempt to get in the Guinness Book of World Records? :)

Nowhere near close - I mentioned this on an industry list, and someone mentioned a warehouse incident, accidentally dropping and spilling the dice from a pallet of 192,000 (48 boxes, each containing 4 bags of 1000 dice)
