    So if you get milled 10, it means nothing, but if you draw 10 suddenly you have all these answers?

    When copying an object, the copy acquires the copiable values of the original object’s characteristics and, for an object on the stack, choices made when casting or activating it (mode, targets, the value of X, whether it was kicked, how it will affect multiple targets, and so on). The “copiable values” are the values derived from the text printed on the object (that text being name, mana cost, card type, subtype, supertype, expansion symbol, rules text, power, toughness, and/or loyalty), as modified by other copy effects, by “as . . . enters the battlefield” and “as . . . is turned face up” abilities that set characteristics, and by abilities that caused the object to be face down. Other effects (including type-changing and text-changing effects), status, and counters are not copied.

    It would seem to me that that would make it so that Lord of Extinction's P/T would still be the number of cards in the graveyard. It explicitly states that it copies such stats as modified by other effects, which includes the method on how the asterisks on Lord of Extinction are determined.
