I know it's just a meme and the accuracy of ancient history/religious folklore is always going to be questionable anyway, but don't you think it's reasonable that an army of orderly and disciplined soldiers would move just a bit faster and more efficiently than a band of refugees?

And don't forget that an army would definitely move much faster than an exodus that never happened.
