Others clarified the kW versus kWh, but to re-visit the comparison to a household:

One household uses about 30 kWh per day.

20 kW * 24 = 480 kWh per day for the server.

So you're looking at one server (if parent's 20kW number is accurate - I see other sources saying even 25kW) consuming 16 households worth of energy.

For comparison, a hair dryer uses around 1.5 kW of energy, which is just below the rating for most US home electrical circuits. This is something like 13 hair dryers going on full blast.
