There are a couple of key questions that need to be asked:

Do dwarves get the Key Master? Do halfings get Sirran? Do human's get all the Monk and Bard GMs? How about Ran Flamespinner? If it is race vs race, disregarding all other factors, and you considered barbarians and erudites not to be humans, humans would dominate. They control Highhold, Freeport, Qeynos (Not that Freeport and Qeynos would ever align in the game lore) and have the most level 61 GMs to their name. Sure, infiltrate through the sewer system... There are like 7-12 GMs in the freeport underground who I would NOT want to run in to.

Not sure what lives in the Qeynos sewers but... Stick a couple of monk GMs down there.
I think the character roles are more figurative than specific to the game. I would still consider the GMs to be the most powerful leaders under each race. But they probably aren't wipe out an entire army powerful. You should think of each race having their own armies, strategies, weaknesses, etc. It's not exactly the head to head slasher that is envisioned in videogames.

However, I am inclined to agree with you. Humans would by far have the largest and most versatile armies. It's just that their cities just aren't very defensible.
