Sovereign was almost certainly exagerating to scare Shepard. The Reapers are the creators of the Mass Relays, it wouldn't surprise me if they could actually move from one edge of the galaxy to the other as if it was nothing. People seem to think that Eh, less than a million is small Consider how every system you enter you are followed by, at most, 6 reapers, i do not at all think it would be impossible for there to be mere 18.000 Sovereign class reapers, especially since they are so damn big you can see them from afar and see like, what, 3 S-class Reapers on Thessia? The Destroyers are those who are the greatest in number.
