All of Sony only contains 6000 files? I always thought they were a giant multinational, who knew Sony was just two guys running the operation out of their apartment?

No need to imagine. A lot of dump (map data, user data, etc) can reach the gigabytes and terabytes and are done in JSON. Good tools will stream the data and filter it anyway (like jq). You don’t need the whole file in memory.
