Matt Jarbo did the math, he's drinking 2 bottles a night and that'd be about 3600 calories BASE not factoring in chasers. That would be enough to sustain a 360lb person (if we're factoring 10kcal/lb, sedentary activity level). If he just ate the bare minimum and drank two bottles every night he could easily sustain himself for some time, but he does seem to already be suffering from muscular atrophy (eg: his tiny ill-defined arms and legs, poor back definition).
He's leeching minerals from his bones to keep going, I don't even want to imagine what's happening to his teeth as he continues to spiral. It's all just bad. And the brain! You'll end up like Diana from the Opie and Anthony show, thinking you're 30 years in the past on a Navy ship.
It's likely worse than that. Most RMR calculations assume an average body fat percentage for ease of use. Unless whatever calculator Marvelous Matt used was able to figure in Ralph's lean body mass and make a calculation based on that (highly unlikely, the most rudimentary form of attaining that information that I'm aware of involves measuring the circumference of various body parts, such as your wrist) it's estimating how much he burns per day on the very high end.
