The strongest case that this verse does not belong in this theme.

Literal Fulfillment

While the verse names a specific king and city, the "king of kings" title and the sheer scale of the invading forces ("companies, and much people") could be interpreted as hyperbolic language emphasizing the overwhelming nature of the invasion rather than a precise numerical or hierarchical description.

Prophetic Methods of Communication

The verse describes the content of a prophecy (what God will do), not the method by which that prophecy was communicated to Ezekiel.
