How are they fake? They are the number of people logged into steam, there is nothing fake about them, they are exactly what they say they are.
Now if we want to talk about large player numbers there is always League of Legends with it's 1.3m concurrent players. As of november last year so probably closer to 1.5m by now if not 2m, I mean in early 2011 it was averaging just 500k peak per day so that is more than 100% growth in under a year. And LoL isn't on Steam.
