Some of the ancient versions of SCO Unix 3.2 were supplied on floppy
disks. SCO "System V/386 Release 3.2" was around 20 x 1.44 MB diskettes.
I guess its possible that the tape media had additional content. I
expect 3.2v4.2 was bigger, but if it was 10 x bigger I'd be a little
surprised. OTOH I trust JPR's instincts more than I do my own :-)
