" Unless it was Virginia, people wouldn't need to take the Metro (and even then not necessarily)."

there's no parking down town,(around the mall) everyone from MD takes the metro. the metro drops you off right on the Mall, you would be nuts not to take the metro

there's hardly any bus parking, maybe a 100 or so and you need a permit. Since the marchers only ask for a 2000 person permit on the mall, how many Bus permits do you think they got ?? 5? 10 ?

there's no bus parking in Northwest DC, you would have to go all the way to Montgomery county and then you would take the metro in.

There is no way in hell you are getting over a million people on the mall with the metro just running 80,000 over an average sat.

Look at July 4th, the metro is packed
