Chandu,

It's clear you didn't do the calculations. Please do them yourself and see
what answer you get for the density of 32885 water molecules in a box with
volume 10^3 nm^3. Note also that there may be implicit assumptions
underlying the value of the density provided by genbox, but it's the number
of molecules that counts.
