Actually mate, I've just had a look around the other stages and I might have wildly underestimated that figure.
Ordinarily that would be roughly the figure for a Pyramid stage headliner, for example, last night, it was pretty much equally split between Guns n Roses (Pyramid) and Lana Del Rey (Other) about 80k each.
However I've just had a look around the other main stages and the Other stage (Queens of the Stone Age) and the West Holts (Rudimental) are both very poorly attended.
You could possibly be looking at 120-130k for Elton, which would be one of the biggest Pyramid stage crowds ever.
EDIT: Josh Homme has just said "Are you all having a good time?" Crowd: "Yeah!" Josh Homme "What about you people at the back, are you having a good time?" Pause "Actually it's not very far to the back is it?"

Hahahaha that bloke crying just! When we beat Bolton in the FA cup final when we got back the pub after the game everyone in the pub was telling my mate he’d been on the telly. So we watched the highlights and the camera panned to him at the end of the game and there he was blubbing like a baby🤣 You can imagine the shit he’s had for that episode!

Certainly post fence this is the biggest. Pre fence Chemical Brothers had approx 200k and Levellers had approx 300k (!) which is just insane. Festivals I go to are around 60k in capacity which is more than enough for me.
