50 to 200 flights? The way these group travel, hearded like cattle, its barely 20 flights, if that. Do not exagerate just for the sake of making a point.

Indian intelligence officials tell Hersh that they number the escaped officials and fighters at four or five thousand

4,500 / 20 flights = 225 passengers per flight
4,500 / 50 flights = 90 passengers per flight
4,500 / 200 flights = 22.5 passengers per flight

Do you think the Pakistan Air Force pulled its 10 operational C-130Bs for the airlift? With a carrying capacity of 90 persons, that would still require 50 flights, or 5 round trips each. Or did they use their single Antonov An-26?

Also, does the Kunduz airport support C-130B landings?

You're right, it time to stop exaggerating. Let's see your facts and numbers.
