No. The next node (or maybe your own node) will compare 4000 to maxHTL, which is 25 on almost every node, and replace it with 25. Also, you don't find out about nodes you didn't communicate with directly. You might find out about the node which actually supplied the data, but there is a 2% chance (at least) that any node along the path may decide to claim to the the node that had the data, after receiving and storing it. Then you learn about that node. So for any given request, you would learn about only one other node. -- Ed Huff
