Technically that is true, so long as one is only talking positive
numbers: even a googol is less than half of infinity, so most of the
positive numbers that exist are more than a googol.  (If one removes
that restriction, the halfway point is zero, and the majority of
numbers - all negative numbers, zero, and all positive numbers less
than X - are less than any given positive number X.)
