It would seem that licences allow a certain percentage of supplementary buses. It is also possible that event-specific licences were sought.

I'm not certain, but I don't think the 3.5 million number is for trains departing from/to Cork. I suspect it is people boarding at any point between Cork and Dublin, on any train. It may exclude Portlaoise-Dublin passengers though.
