Nah, it's a completely reasonable statistic; the 400,000 prostitutes[1] in Germany are each having sex with an average of 20 men every single day. Assuming a 7 hour work day, that's just 3 men per hour per prostitute every day of the year. Totally reasonable.^(/s)

I suspect that may be a faulty extrapolation, but we'd need a source to be sure.
For instance if they surveyed the Reeperbahn and compared the punters per day to the population of Hamburg, they'd miss that most of them are tourists who came specifically for that purpose.

1 million men pay for sex per day. I calculated to this to come down to 20% of adult men which must have a terrible miscalculation. 1 million is more like 2-3%. Apologies, though my point still stands. I'd imagine to 2% figure could easily go up to 20% if talking on a weekly or monthly basis.https://www.theguardian.com/world/shortcuts/2013/jun/12/germany-now-europes-biggest-brothel[1][2]

(edit: just read Chand_laBing's comment which shows 20% may actually be accurate for daily)
