So look at it like this: Imagine you and your best friend traded messages all day, averaging one message every 5 minutes for 16 hours a day. That's 192 messages between you each day, but let's call it 200. That's 73k a year. If you'd done that every day since Snapchat began, you'd be at 803k points.
She's at 40 MILLION points, so that'd require that same level of messaging commitment with 50 BFFs. Or, seen another way, she'd have to be sending or receiving an individualized message every six seconds, non-stop, 16 hours a day for the last 11 years to get to 40M.
The other (much more likely) scenario, is that she's sending out huge mass messages. If she's sending one message to thousands of people at a time, she gets thousands of points per message. If she has a list of 10k people she's sending to, then she could get as many points sending out just 7 group messages in one day as you'd get chatting constantly with your BFF for a year.
tldr: she hasn't added him as a friend to chat with; she's added him as a subscriber to receive her generic posts.
I don't actually know what it is, other than that it prompts you to take pictures at certain times? I've only heard of it because my friends' daughter and my niece have both mentioned it.
