That's over 4 days of non-stop download. I don't consider that plausible.
I used to download Red Hat Linux (FTP edition) in > 1 week with what was
then considered a "broadband" connection. (And these days, Fedora is so much
larger than RHL used to be that even a significantly faster connection than
that will take a week to download it.)
It doesn't have to be non-stop, HTTP(S) supports resuming downloads. (Though
the download can be continued even overnight. Resuming is only needed if an
unwanted interruption happens.)
