Divided that by 365 and you get around 27,400 on an average day, maybe half that again on a busy day, probably nearer double on holidays. Doesn't leave very much room for off-site guests at all.
Remember that it's unlikely that those 27,000 onsite guests will all head to the same park on the same day. Some will go to Universal Studios, some to IOA, some to VB and some will be visiting elsewhere (shopping at the malls, seeing the sights down I Drive, going to Seaworld, visiting Disney, etc).

At a rough guess, it'll be more like 10,000 of those onsite guests will visit one particular park on any one day. That still means that the majority of guests will be offsite guests. As I mentioned above, it'll "only" be a daily increase of around 4,000 guests per day compared to the current numbers.
