I think the number is MUCH higher than that.

In some parts of central Asia up to 14% of the population are direct MALE-LINE descendants, (as shown by certain features on the Y-chromosome). That is male-male-male-male only through the centuries. When you allow for the male-female variations, probably like 80 or 90 % can trace back to him in those central Asian regions. World wide, I'd say 5 to 10 pecent would be a low estimate.

He had lots of sons, they became kings and prices and lords and so had lots of sons, who became kings and princes and lords ... repeat cycle.
