Still can't figure out where he got those views for all his videos in less than a day or so..

I don't know if this is what they did, but many embed their video in a pop-behind when buying traffic (for far less then a penny per view), and as the video is played behind the site, they get a view.

It's a bit pointless though.

Looks like hes gaming the system somehow. No video gets over 500k views with less than 6 comments and 2 likes, 8 dislikes.

They are buying views.
