Rubbish Guestimate:
8-10 pumps per petrol Station is one pump per 450 cars.
A diesel car has a 500 mile range and takes 5 minutes to fill, 100 miles range per minute.
Each pump can supply 100x60 minutes of fuel per hour, 6000miles worth.
divide that by the 450 cars it has to service each pump can supply 13.3 miles of fuel per car per hour.
450:1 vs 6:1
Looks better to me. But yeah. Assumptions built on top of assumptions and rounding errors. Probably deserves some more of my brain time to work that out.
