redvip2000- your missing the thousands that walked to nearby hotels or the train station.
OTWO - reports are that it bought in $17,000,000 in revenue to the local area. I dont know the source of the reports though. Lol
the following e-mail is circulating among jws about the international convention at fedex stadium in landover, md.
note the all-too-familiar jw claims: everything they do (including the simple act of parking cars) is proof of jehovah'stm blessing, and everything wt did at the convention was the fastest, greatest, best ever.
oh, and the never-fails-to-get-mentioned alleged 'persecution'/resistance from some unnamed authority who tried to get in watchtower's way and hamper the effort...but jws prevailed anyway (as always):.

To confirm what dozy said,
additionally, there was a fatal accident traffic accident
lets be clear, the traffic issues on the beltway and up to the vicinity of the stadium are somewhat different from the parking issues encountered at the stadium. there are a couple of exits off of the beltway that can get you to the stadium. Each leading you into a different entrance to stadium parking. But based on instructions to take a specific route, one may have sat in that beltway traffic to get off on their assigned exit leading to a particular parking area, meanwhile passing another suitable exit from the beltway.
i sat in it for 2 1/2 hrs, because we couldn't grieve Jehovah's "holy spirit" and go against the arrangement by taking another exit right there beside me. I guess Jehovah's Holy Spirit wanted me to miss the 1st half of the convention on Friday.
There was still other issues going on in the parking lot.
then by the time it was time for Friday afternoon announcements, I guess Jehovah's Holy Spirit decided to correct his original instructions and request that people take alternate exits and routes to the stadium parking lot saturday and Sunday.
Dozy said-
the traffic back-up was so bad that the local police got involved and demanded to see the assembly overseer to see what was going on.
this sounds more like it.
