I don't think that was the point. The point was that one ninth of the population was on the street. That's over 11%.
To be at the same scale the US being a country of ~340 millions should have a protest of almost 38 millions people.

In smaller country people may be able to protest together more easily but usually they manifest locally, in their own town or the closest city.
