Who gets some Groceries and says "Mission Accomplished"?

Well, maybe not "mission accomplished", but there are people who get overly exited about a number, thinking it means much more than it actually does, and as a result, don't put much effort into gaming new prospects. They think "number = interest = DTF", which is often not the case. Another example (one I recently met a few weeks ago) are guys who go mainly for numbers in a club instead of bangs that same night, whilst counting their success by how many names they have on their phone by the end of the night, despite the fact that numbers recieved from a drunken girl at a bar with a hundred other guys chasing her who likely won't even remember the conversation you had (much less your name) is even more likely to lead to a dead end. This is what I think most guys are thinking when they say "numbers are worthless". This admittedly mainly applies to newbies than to guys with more experience.
