they say they lose 1% of revenue from every extra 100ms of page load time, how much do you think they would lose from 4 hours of downtime?

Rule of thumb: differences of orders of magnitude result in differences of kind, not degree.

Behavior over 100ms can't be compared to behavior over hours. It's possible that it's true, but it's unlikely.
