Default Invertebrate Population in 75 Gallon

I am on the verge of stocking my 75 gallon and wanted to begin, surprisingly enough, with some cleaners. Looking on the web, I see a lot of vendors offering some great deals for a 75 gallon tank. Yet when I compare what they are suggesting for a 75 gallon tank and what people actually have in their tanks, there seems to be a big discrepency (People seem to have far less inverts than what vendors recommend). As an example:

One U.S. vendor suggested/is packaging 35 red legged hermits, 22 astrea, 18 cerith, 15 scarlet hermit, 2 emerald crab, 1 brittle star, 1 serpent star, 20 nassarius and 10 nerite...all for a 75 gallon.

Pardon my confusion, however are these numbers correct for a 75 gallon?
