Your limited capacity with the English language is hindering your understanding of Scripture. These are similes; the number of believers is being compared to the number of stars or grains of sand. The believers themselves are not compared with stars.
The stars do not represent anything here.
Nowhere in Scripture is it stated that the number 12 represents the authority of God as a whole. Any such representations are therefore not doctrinal but rather speculative.

We are told: "In the beginning God Created Heaven and Earth". According to Science the Universe started out: hydrogen and helium along with trace amounts of lithium and beryllium. The universe actually has a balance of a billion to a billion and one. Otherwise it would self destruct. Neil DeGrasse Tyson wrote an interesting book about astrophysics. He even has a version for young people.

If there is no aether, on what does light travel? The presumption that there is no aether is just that, a presumption, to try to make sense of the experiments proving the Earth is still. But this presumption makes no sense, as all waves require a medium, and aether is the medium on which light waves travel. If one accepts the fact that there is aether, the experiments prove that Earth is stationary, and no make-believe special exceptions need be invented for light waves.
Aether was a medieval science and long been proven false and in modern times with optical resonators.
Even newton threw out that idea of aether and gravitational reactions even Einstein was embarrassed in considering the aether theory.
. The result was negative, in that Michelson and Morley found no significant difference between the speed of light in the direction of movement through the presumed aether, and the speed at right angles. This result is generally considered to be the first strong evidence against the then-prevalent aether theory, and initiated a line of research that eventually led to special relativity, which rules out a stationary aether. Of this experiment, Einstein wrote, "If the Michelson–Morley experiment had not brought us into serious embarrassment, no one would have regarded the relativity theory as a (halfway) redemption."

Light is both a particle and a wave. It speaks of the duality of our own nature, being both physical and non physical.
Gravity and electromagnetic force don't need a medium of transmission any more than any part of the EM spectrum does.
My friend, you are working from 500 year old physics. Much has been learned since then.

The Big Bang started out at least 1,000 years ago as a Religious belief. Science has shown us that this is true and this is how the universe started. God showed me in a dream when I was a child that the universe is expanding. With the Space Hubble camera and simple trigonometry we can see that the universe is expanding. This is the same math we use for our GPS. God also told me that at some point in time the universe would begin to shrink or contract. I had this dream may years before I read about this in Science and in Religion.
I never got past chapter one of Tysons book on Astrophysics. It is a wild ride. The idea that without the billion to a billion and one imbalance between matter and antimatter the universe would have self-annihilated. What they call science is more interesting then science fiction. I would read and study this if it was true or not.

Light can be measured as a wave or a particle but never both at the same time. We see this at the event horizon. Also at the horizon, usually on the beach at sunset people can get some interesting photos. We see this in the double slit experiment. I studied up on this at one time and the physics of light is very interesting. I worked as an electrician on the lighting crew of our state ballet company. If we control the light then we can control peoples reality in theater. We take them out of their world into a different world. Then at the end of the performance we return them to their world a changed and different person.
