I do genuinely believe that when it comes to recruiting members of sovereign nations, the government goes after elite soldiers so they can groom them to become high-ranking officers. This is supported by Kaido's mini-flashback.
Now there might as well be a couple of million marine soldiers out in the world. But having 1.5 million troops that are basically sitting ducks isn't really worth a damn against a yonko or a top-tier who has insane AoE.
That's why they only called in high-ranking/elite officers to Marineford. Cuz at the very least, the weakest troops among them have the ability to survive massive aoe attacks and hopefully hold back powerful enemies.
It's kinda like what Zoro told Sanji on fishman island. 100k fishmen with barely any training are sitting ducks against a mildly powerful pirate group.
What makes the marines strong isn't really their numbers, it's simply that they are better equipped and have a bigger amount of trained soldiers than any yonko.

10s of millions of marine soldiers.
Marineford had 1% of the Navy's full forces.
Admiral level = 1 in millions of soldiers or 99.999th percentile in the OP world.
How many Vice Admirals do we think there are?

So simple math should tell us that if CoC is a 1 in a million power, their should literally be dozens of CoC users in the Marines lmfao

The reason this is a navy upscale is less to do with the number of soldiers and more so the sheer number of ships the navy can bring to bear.
Just 10 ships can buster call an island (100 at Egghead), one warship (50 at MF like 20 at Egghead) has sea stone reinforcement and comparable firepower to a Pacifista.
Millions of soldiers implies that the Navy could mobilize thousands of ships which is enough to destroy hundreds and hundreds of
islands.
Like the WG could obliterate Wano and Tottoland without even needing to make landfall.
