What I found interesting is that it only has 1700 pieces - I think they might have gotten that wrong...

It doesn't sound unreasonable. Even with 1/4" slices (it looks more like 3/8" in the photos), the main structure would only take about half of that, figuring each cross-section is a single piece.
(Another possibility is that they meant 1700 sheets of cardboard. I have no idea what is a standard size for 'raw' cardboard...4'x8'?)

I went to the page in the link above to show the wife some pics of the thing--
Pics are gone (?) but now there's a video that shows how they made it, pretty interesting...
