This Reuters Article regarding the number of dead in the Burma cyclone, said:
"Given the gravity of the situation including the lack of food and water, some partners have reported fears for security, and violent behavior in the most severely afflicted areas," the United Nations Office for Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs said. It said "the number of deaths could range from 63,290 to 101,682"
This is like saying "82,486 plus or minus 19,196". With a margin of error that large, there's no way to support 5 significant digits of accuracy!
