My kids actually do that (because I did think about it when they were growing up). And not just to impress me, I was watching the elder daughter in an orchestra concert via streaming cam one time. The camera happened to catch her during a really long rest, and I could see her hand resting on her knee, counting out measures in binary.

As far as I know, none of the kids have learned to control their toes individually, so they can’t actually count up to 1,048,575 :-).
