'Viral' meme VS a Logician

There is this viral meme going around, and you can replicate it's claim yourself. Apparently everyone seems quite amazed and wowed by the result. I was not amazed, and I didn't see anything odd about it.
I try to explain it to some folks and they dismiss...

The meme:

When one performs the task, their mind is supposed to be 'blown'.

Go ahead, if you must, try it yourself.
The result is spoiler you will find a coronavirus 'new cases' mention for any of those digits..

So...Logicians?

Is this Logical?
It seems like a very logical, normal outcome to me, does it not you?

Any case count will have a high probability of having 'someone' out there, reporting on it 'at that time/count'.
So you can find the specific reports, or mentions, for 'that number/count', and you will see they are from all over the world.
Perhaps hundreds of thousands of 'reports', if not millions. Of course, with extremely high probabiliy, there will be one or more, for every number.

Please point the flaw in the explanation, or concur.
