They definitely don't sell 1,000 McFlurries a day. Assuming they fulfill one order every 30 seconds, and McFlurries are reasonably purchased between noon and midnight (never heard of a breakfast McFlurry). That's 1,440 orders per day. McFlurries are not going to have a 70% attach rate.

I live in South East Asia where there's fewer McDonalds restaurants, but they're much larger and higher volume than I've seen elsewhere (Europe, most of US and Australia). The ice cream machines often sit at the front of the restaurant (since many restaurants are located in malls). Many people pass by and buy ice cream only. But you can still order them with your regular menu from inside the restaurant. They sell a LOT of ice cream here.

Cones appear to sell more than McFlurries here.

If any location is getting to 1,000 McFlurries then all I have to say is... America.
