From the page; "SEOMoz found that the top 100 Digg users control 56% of the homepage. More recent statistics show that the top 100 Digg users are responsible for 48% of the content that appears on the home page."

So, the post does a really good job trying to answer; why are these rock stars necessary?

Very interesting post Jeff. Kim's right, that video was enlightening.

P.S. Anybody who reads this should be sure to read the comments, and keep in mind the part of the post that mentions the frustration of the masses for not having the "conch shell". There's a lot of bitterness toward those power-users!
