No MM would put on a position like that.
edit: The only possible way that MM's might have a huge position like that would be option MM's that had offsetting positions.
But that number is totally beyond even imagining that a group of MM's would go to that size.
Edit2: If the option MM's have a position on like that then they are long calls, and short puts up to their ying yang and will make a killing on the trade.

On Friday evening, July 23, 2010, the FDIC announced five more bank failures, bringing the totals to 108 so far this year and 275 since 2007. The five banks closed this week had collective assets of about $1.9 billion and deposits of about $1.8 billion.

Their closings cost the FDIC an estimated $335 million, about 19% of deposits. So far this year, bank closings have cost the FDIC an estimated $18.88 billion.

All five closings involved the FDIC entering into loss-share agreements with the acquiring banks. As a result, the total value of assets under FDIC loss-share agreements increased by $920 million, to about $180.82 billion.

MM's will go naked short stocks , but it is invariably an extremely short time frame trade. Mostly measured in hours, and certainly not more than a couple of days.

You have no idea what you are talking about. I asked you how you could possibly know that the shorts were naked.
