There is plenty of information available on the internet regarding the thread count of sheets and how it is computed. Generally sheet manufacturers count the plies within each thread which is how they get such insanely high numbers. The idea of 1000 actual threads per inch is inconceivable, imo, and the system is not the least bit standardized.
