There were 600,000 Israelites who left Egypt (Ex 12:37). This does not include children and it probably does not include women.
The Lord fed them with Manna from heaven. No need to worry about the land supporting them.
The Lord actually fed them once for a whole month on quail. There was so much quail that it was stacked two cubits deep for a days journey on all sides of their camp. (Numbers 11:31)

No kidding, fella. I accounted for the manna by basically allowing for the entire population to survive (and in one post, prosper) prior to reaching Canaan.
