Wont this wear out the flash memory quickly? I wonder hiw many read cycles can it survive

Reads are effectively infinite. I'm not aware of any upper limit shorter than "end of the universe" timescales.

Flash wears out from writing and the answer is in the tens to hundreds of thousands of writes per cell.

It's write and/or erase cycles that cause wear.
