"might", but what's the evidence?
I have at least one example with 6000 references. That's not a bad sample, and there are many highly cited retractions. Plus any number of highly cited citation farmers (the whole of mathematics, we've just learnt...).
How would you demonstrate even a correlation with anything substantial? Take 30-year-old papers, ask experts if they are good now, and check their contemporaneous citations?
