So that means that since bacteria and the like outnumber us by orders of magnitude, statistically speaking, multicellular life would be wiped out completely.

No, the reproduce pretty quickly. Wipe out 50 % of the bacteria in your body, an they will recover in a few hours. Wipeout 50% of all the grass in Africa, and you’re gonna have a lot of starving gazelle, and even more starving lions.

That’s not how probabilities work. Every lifeform flips a coin. It doesn’t matter what everyone else got, you still have a 50/50 chance.
