Any possible connections with mass of R Akiva’s students dying and the rebellion? Whether yes or no, we can presume that support of the most popular Rav of that generation caused many people joining the rebellion. If R Akiva had 24,000 students at some point, the number of people influenced by his opinion would be higher than that.
