I found the details. The Frenchman was Charles Rohault de Fleury, and the total amount of slivers of cross he measured came to 240 cubic inches.

Nowhere near even 2/3 of a whole cross - I don’t know where I remember that figure from.

No, it accounts for approximately 2/3rds of the Patibulum, i.e. Just the cross piece of the Cross and not the Stipes.
