With the population that low, I have the question of whether they were all in one group or how many different groups. It seems that there had to have still been at least one group left behind in Africa and probably at least one group in the Arabia/Iraq area as well as at least one SE Asian group east of Toba. Were there also isolated groups in Pakistan, Australia, or China? If so, how long would it take for these micro groups barely emerging from a 1,000 year nuclear winter to contact each other again?

The best answer I can give you:

Either that or read Oppenheimer's book, Out Of Eden.
