Writers significantly over/undershooting statistics in their story?

Inspired by a Lifetime movie about a girl dating an NFL wide receiver, who apparently won league MVP... 9 times???

For context, the highest number of MVP titles won is 5 for Peyton Manning. Only 6 players have ever won even 3 MVPs. This hypothetical wide receiver must be the greatest athlete of all time, by orders of magnitude, and it would be a miracle if he didn't have astronomical amounts of CTE. Also, no wide receiver has ever won MVP!

What's a similar anecdote or statistic in a story, that makes you think "If this were true then something is wrong here"?
