I may be completely wrong here but I think that figure is pretty close
(it's at least within one order of magnitude if not the same order) to
the number of places in London that were granted 24h hour licenses.

Contrary to popular thought, we're not all out getting pissed 24 hours a
day now as only 359 pubs and clubs across the country were granted 24
hour licenses. The other 70,000 or so successful applicants just wanted
extended hours.
