The 500 wins seems more "unbreakable", but given the eras it doesn't seem as impressive to me, considering that Cy was pitching twice as many times a year as most pitchers these days for the bulk of his career. That's not to mention the amount of decisions he was getting due to normally pitching entire games..
But regardless, you're right. I actually don't think it is the most unbreakable career total record in sports, but all things considered it might be the most amazing.
