Wouldn't be surprised if Hinduism has at least 3000 on its own.
They have the best understanding. The Supreme being is so omnipotent it manifests in many forms depending on the situation
I mean, monotheism wasn't really a thing (as far as well can tell) prior to 4302 years after humans first began to form civilizations.
For more than 4000 years, we started forming governments, systems of currency, art and culture, all believing that there was no way just 1 being could be to blame for all observable phenomena.
I feel like It could only be the rise of empires and Kings handed down from the heavens that lead to us to being so susceptible to monotheistic beliefs.
