OpenDocument version 1.0 - specification:

12572/OpenDocument-v1.0-os.pdf
or http://tinyurl.com/dkjop
ODF is 706 pages total.

OOXML Part 1 - Fundamentals, Page 2 (PDF page 9), Section 2,
Conformance versus ODF, Part 1 - Introduction, Page 35 (PDF page 35),
Section 1.5 Document Processing and Conformance. Statistics are from
gedit 2.18.1, direct copy and paste of page contents:
ODF OOXML
58 69 Lines
427 416 Words
2883 3205 Characters (with spaces)
2156 2305 Characters (no spaces)
2898 3225 Bytes
427 : 416 = 102.6% expansion.
706 x 102.6% = 725 pages.
6000 - 725 = 5275 pages too many.
Mark, you were off by 625 pages. :-)
