But....... if there are 400 million people in the USA
and say 100 million homes.... and if we save just ONE
watt in the fridge bulb.... that is 100 million watts

I thought it was below 300m, so a few less watts saved!

~350M I believe.

I've always used the rule of thumb that the US population is five
times the UK and don't see a reason to change it!

The UK is less that 1/3 the size of TX, so think of what that means
for population density and why just about nothing can be compared
across the two countries.

Quite. It's one of the reasons we tend to have smaller vehicles! We each
have an eighth of the space over here.
