Here on debian, yes:
$ for i in $BIN_TARGETS ; do apt-file search bin/$i|grep "bin/$i\$"; done
graphicsmagick-imagemagick-compat: /usr/bin/import
$ apt-cache pkgnames|wc -l
52105

That's not really 52k packages, since debian splits packages (eg, foo,
foo-dev, foo-doc; xmms2-plugin-* alone is 46 packages), but it's still a
reasonable sample :)
