Thus the IARC classification of 2A, meaning it's likely that acrylamide causes cancer but we aren't sure if it does yet Which might be because of the dose
Regardless, I suspect that as you say even with a massive factor the effect would still only be seen in people drinking liters of coffee a day which is probably not a big slice of the population

Looked it up! The standard FDA scaling factor from rats:humans appears to be 62, so I should divide my 250,000 by 62 which is 4,000 or 4 liters of coffee a day. Not as fun a number but still pretty bigpic.twitter.com/HeEP0dSmpb
