This is some of the earliest population data for U.S. cities available that is being used here, calculated from very old taxation data from the late 17th century.

The most populated cities being at 7000 really is crazy

It was pretty much on par with some of the largest English cities in this time period. Roughly the same population size as Leicester, which was the 11th largest city of England proper at the time.
