1 and 2 are correct from the other answer but 3 is not. I do not know what is correct to replace it but I thought you guys should know :)

I'd say that the following lines contain hyperbole (or exaggeration):
1. they'll flock in droves
2. I'm a made man forever
3. In less than twenty four hours London was abuzz
