Brihad Bhagavatamrta
Part 1 Chapter 7 Text 104-105

sodasanam sahasranam
sa-satanam mad-aptaye
krta-katyayani-puja-
vratanam gopa-yositam
nidarsanad iva sviyam
kincit svasthayitum manah
tavatya eva yuyam vai
mayatraita vivahitah

TRANSLATION
Some 16,100 gopis had with vows worshiped Katyayani to obtain Me. To bring My mind somewhat to peace by seeing a likeness of them, I married the same number of you queens here in Dvaraka.
