M$The United States Statutes at Large is the source to find every law ever passed by Congress in chronological order.
What matters about the US Code is not how many laws are in it but that it unifies all the current laws in volumes organized by subject matter. You can see where particular laws are codified using things called popular names tables but these also don't really indicate "how many" laws are in the US Code. All I can tell you is that it's pretty massive.
