How many autos in a 2x4 tent?

So I have several fast buds strains and I have several autos that will be running outdoors this summer. But I want to do some autos indoors also. Going to try some in Coco using dry organic amendments.

How many do you think I can do in 5 gallon fabric pots in a 2x4 tent? I was hoping to do 3. My plan was 1 smoothie auto, 1 gorilla glue auto, and one white rhino auto...

I've only experimented with autos in 5 gal DWC buckets. Every one of them would occupy a 2x2 footprint with no issues so I'd shoot for a pair but 3 will fit-gonna get cozy though.

I have the same size tent as well I put anywhere from 3 to 5 autos at a time I also do a lot of lst to make them fit vertically though so only 3 or 4 would be your best bet more room makes things easier

Exactly the same setup that I've ran for 4 or 5 years now. They get monstrous in 5gal bubble buckets.
As for the OP's question, I agree with Josh, you'll be limited to the neighborhood of 2-5 autoflowers at a time depending on lighting and what not...but I wouldn't imagine you having any big issues with 3 plants in that setup. I only bring up lighting because, as we all know, more light will = bigger plants and more heat which is a limiting factor. But if you can keep temps in the right zone, 3 should do fine as long as you do some serious LST'ing. to encourage horizontal growth, unless you've plenty of vertical space of course.
