That's probably almost half a months supply of tanks in one day.
Reports are Russia can make 3 tanks/day (I think this includes reactivation). Exact numbers are of course classified and it wouldn't surprise me if Russia isn't collecting this data (so spys can't get at it), but 3 seems like a reasonable number. Unfortunately they have many tanks in service so it will be a while before they run out. However Russia has lost enough that they appear to be more careful how tanks are used.
Yeah maybe I exaggerated a bit, but still 6 days supply of tanks in one day is a lot. Although not long ago, numbers like this and even higher were common.
