Definitions of squillion on the Web:

The English language has a number of words for indefinite and fictitious numbers - inexact terms of indefinite size, used for comic effect, for exaggeration, as placeholder names, or when precision is unnecessary or undesirable.
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Squillion
A very large, unspecified number (of)
en.wiktionary.org/wiki/squillion


It is NOT REAL.

squillion 16 up, 4 down
A word which can be used to indicate a large amount of some thing. Much larger than a million but smaller than a zillion
I've got a squillion tadpoles in my garden.

A number that has no real value is not a real number. "A large amount of something" is not a number.

A zillion does not exist.
