Welcome to YT.
Yorkies can and do get that big and even bigger. Breed standard for showing in the ring is 7 pounds and under, but they do come in all different sizes.
If that person was an experienced, knowledgable breeder she would be aware of the history of how the breed was developed and the size of the dogs that went in to making Yorkies, Yorkies. She would also be knowledgable in the fact that even very small dogs can occasionally produce very large dogs.
Genetics are so much fun.
