JLBR, the number was presented as an example based on the President's target of 1 million vehicles and their service area encompassing 18% of the population. In other words, it was an ultra rough wild guess assuming that the President's goal of 1 million cars with plugs is met.

I don't for a minute believe cars with plugs will fly with consumers, but with 100 million cars on the road, it doesn't take much market penetration to get to 1 million vehicles in five years.
The more intriguing question is "If you have 4,000 MW of potential frequency regulation capacity in 180,000 plug-ins but only need 1,000 MW of frequency regulation, how much are you going to be willing to pay the plug-in owners." The law of supply and demand tells me not much!
