Following on from what @ianfontinell said, it also isn't necessarily relevant how many people downloaded your 40gb torrent. The only guaranteed upload is the initial 40gb, at which point you've fully seeded your torrent once. Thereafter, you may not have uploaded any more, though that's unlikely,
Once someone else has downloaded some of your torrent, they can also be uploading to others, who in turn can be uploading to still more people. You only get credit for what you personally have uploaded, not the total uploaded on that torrent. What client do you use? On qBittorrent, for instance, there's a column you can display which tells you on a per torrent basis how much you have uploaded in total.
