I know that in the case of WS4F it took some really seriously good
conditions. But Gene is right, just about every contest at least one
stations works 100+ grids on 2 meters.

Wow! Never would have thought that 100 grids in a single weekend could be
done on 2m. That is surely impressive. Probably need a mixture of enhanced
propagation-like Eskip with some tropo or aurora thrown in.
