Ouch.  There are over 1/4 million 80186 based NGEN.  I haven't seen any
numbers since then, but I assume that some of them are still in service.  I
have no idea what the delivery figures are for 286, 386, 486 boxes.
The total number of 8088 and 8086 boxes is probably low tens of thousands.

Or did you mean CTOS sites?  That seems high, but closer than 220k boxes.
