This is a partially valid point... let me restate.
About 200K lines of code is auto-generated.
A more appropriate estimation would probably be about 400k lines per year as some of this code did a big mass migration and refactoring during this time but I wrote that code as well. Just in the past.
KLOC is a shitty metric anyway.
I'd rather write 100 KLOC that worked vs 10000KLOC that was horrible.
