1000 cycles firing every other revolution=500 ignitions per cylinder
500*8=4000

The question is how many times combustion takes place, not ignition fires.

4 combustion strokes per revolution.
4*1000 =4000. same thing different math.

Some more different math
8 cylinders , firing every other revolution. (in other words only half the time)
8 * .5 x 1000 revolution = 4000
