Sounds like a good theory. Or maybe it got loaded onto a freight train. Wonder how many tank cars it would take....
The smallest tank cars hold 4000 gallons; typical ones about 10000. FRA rules for modern tank cars are "must not exceed 34,500 gallons capacity or 263,000 pounds gross weight on rail." So a million pounds would take considerably less than the 200 trucks.
