I think it's all made up. The most power hungry data center in the world consumes 150MW of power, and that's from a massive 11 million square foot facility in China that's significantly larger than any other data center.

EDIT: an hour of heavy thinking does consume approximately 12 watt hours though, so that figure seems reasonable.
