The Tale of the Years mentiones for 3320 SA the Foundation of the Realms in Exile. The attack on Minas Ithil with which the war began took place in 3429 SA.
That gives the numenoreans about 100 Years to build their citys and their comunity.
For the city that is time enough, I think but not really for great increas in the population. But it is clear that the forces of the last alliance were much smaller than the army that Ar-Pharazôn had led against Sauron in 3261 SA. Otherwise they would have had a much faster victory.
