While there's certainly truth to that, not even numbers alone could truly make a difference if not employed effectively. To give an example, an army may have both superior numbers and armaments, and yet be easily defeated if enrusted to a commander who cannot effectively utilize those resources, or if the soldiers themselves are too poorly disciplined to properly put their orders into action. Whereas a single agent acting alone can, if used correctly, potentially demoralize and thus defeat an entire army. It is the ability to use resources at hand, in the forms of manpower, physical resources, and perhaps most importantly information, and to do so strategically, that is what makes the difference whether in war between nations, or dealing with criminals within a single nation or region.
This is also, of course, perhaps one of the greatest flaws of the local law enforcement; while I could hardly say for certain as to what resources they do or do not have at their disposal, what has been seen of their responses to such situations as the recent occurrance in Olivine suggests that they do indeed suffer from such critically poor organization that they are unable to effectively deal with that sort of situation regardless.
