Estimates of crowd size ranged from a paltry 8,000 to an generous high of 30,000.

Yeah we know there are fewer atheists than Catholics. Nor is Dawkins or anyone else the pope of atheism.
And unlike Catholics atheists tend not to expect miraculous help. Like to see this miraculous drying off bit though. Last Fatima miracle I looked into turned out to be a common desert atmospheric condition plus eyestrain.
If there is a god, I want to believe that there is a god. If there is not a god, I want to believe that there is no god.
