The number has to be in the millions because gas engines with pull cords are used everywhere.
The reason for the pull cord is because of the way a combustion engine works. To get it started, you need to pump the cylinders with air and oxygen and then light a spark. The pull cord turns the engine and provides the initial energy that puts this in motion.
