Funny how proportions are lost. They're assuming the billion views yet they're still 200 million views away. There was a time not so long ago, when Avril Lavigne and the Evolution of Dance battled themselves out fiercely to reach 200 million views. Clickbots, fanclubs and all.
Youtube's user base or the general internet's user base? It might also have to do with an increase in the general internet population of third world countries where this song got its initial traction.

Presumably youtube's userbase has grown since then. Also Psy's song likely has more international appeal than either of those.
