The databooks give stats on the villages, and Konoha isn't the smallest. The difference is also so big that the Hidden Cloud would have to be an absolute ninja factory, which clearly doesn't fit with what we saw. We also saw the majority of fighters were ninja, so samurai couldn't have been such a big fraction. Even if we weight the 100K according to each village's stats, it still doesn't add up. In fact, the more realistic i did the math, the worse the situation got.

Each village destroyed or still active has to have shinobi that have a leader to understand the situation of their whole world. Konoha's active ninja population was halved after the invasion, making it even worse.
