Mnemonic

You try to picture the faces of all the people who live in this metropolis, but for some reason you can only picture their toes (と). And there are ten times as many toes in this city than someones.

If you think about it, every metropolis is completely jam-packed-full of toes. Just picture it. Toes. Everywhere. In every building. Filling up the streets.
