I thought the rules are that anyone who has at least three commits with their Signed-off-by, Tested-by etc can vote. Surely that is more than 1012 (although I could be wrong!).

Probably this:

If you have more than 50 commits that meet this requirement you will
receive a ballot automatically.

If you have between 3 and 49 commits that meet this requirement please
e-mail tab-elections@lists.linuxfoundation.org to request your ballot.
We strongly encourage everyone who meets this criteria to request a
ballot.
