Maybe it is for wireless. That would be more likely with those numbers, but still quite unbelievable. 

My company does low voltage cabling. We charge more than $100 per drop to provide CAT6 in a newly constructed office 
building. It would be impossible to provide wires to 1.2 million locations across PR for $100/each.

Seems you could do something with Wireless much easier, guaranteeing access to speed of +/- 300mbits by using the 
CBAND spectrum that is coming available. Why run wires to the home at all?
