I think "hiring manager" just means "anyone who wants to hire someone" - which would include pretty much everyone above peon level.

[ Riot Games have 2500 employees, most in the same place (per https://www.inc.com/magazine/201612/burt-helm-lindsay-blakel...) which makes 160 people with hiring privileges seem reasonable. ]

Ah, 2500. That's ~15 people per hiring manager so you're right, that does seem more reasonable.
