articles - A + plural? Please help

I have come across this sentence in a CNN report.
"We can't smell them because we have a measly five million sensors in our noses, but dogs have up to 300 million sensors in their noses."



"...a measly five million sensors..." ?



When can we use the article "a" before a plural noun? Could this be a mistake?
