A suggestion that the population of Iceland could reach that total within 15 years or so was published last year in Iceland Review.
For decades population growth in Iceland was very slow.
Every new birth used to be celebrated in the Hamburger Factory by the ringing of a bell. I'm not sure whether they still are. The bell is still there and a totaliser board.

The restaurant, called Hamborgarafabrikkan is situated on the ground floor of the tallest tower in Reykjavik (fact fans) opposite the famous Höfði house.
It is suggested in this piece that the country's population is now very close to passing 400 000.
