An idiomatic expression to mean an emotional and morale strength drawn from a group of people.

What Strength in numbers means is a phrase used to express that in a group, far more can be done compared to something alone. Or could be used when referencing a chart or diagram in which one certain thing outweighs the other. Hence, STRENGTH in NUMBERS
