Maybe. Philly obviously has more than KC, Pittsburgh, Cleveland, and SF, having been a much larger city than those places ever were. It would've been evenly matched with Detroit, but Detroit has lost so much that Philly definitely still has more surviving. L.A. would also be a contender. It was very close to Philly by population in 1950.
