"Threaten to overwhelm", they found 3,000 images. By internet standards that's next to nothing. This is already illegal and it's fairly easy to filter out(or it would be if companies could train on the material legally).

By dark web pedophilia sites standards, I suspect 3000 unique images is actually a lot.

Not really. Image sets tend to have hundreds of photos in different poses. A lot of the sets that would show up on 4chan forever ago included a thumbnail image showing just how many were in the archive.
