Total number of points earned has nothing to do with earning lifetime status.
This is not correct. You need a combination of elite nights and points to earn lifetime status at all tiers:
STATUS QUALIFIED NIGHTS POINTS EARNED
Lifetime Silver Elite 250 nights 1.2 million points
Lifetime Gold Elite 500 nights 1.6 million points
Lifetime Platinum Elite 750 nights 2 million points
