Yep, we know how they got that inflated figure. They went round every department and said something like "What would be on your wish list for Mars if you could have anything you wanted..." The result was predictably huge costs. IIRC they were talking in terms of taking a fully fitted hospital to Mars at 50-100 tonnes, something like that.
