C: 1,000,000 D: 2,500,000
Spoiler
Cody immediately narrows it to C or D, not sure enough so +1 friend Jim comes up
Jim narrowed it to the same choices. Cody said he almost went with C before the lifeline use.
Jim said maybe there are more than ten with over 1M and this said exactly 10 cities, but C is a reasonable guess.
With nothing to lose Cody goes with C.
