It is the rule of nature that the male gametes are always higher in number than the female gametes. The same is the case with flowers. Pollens have to reach the stigma of the same or different flower so as to get fertilized. Pollens need a carrier to reach the stigma and so get dispersed easily resulting into not reaching the stigma. Thus, they are many in number.

Because pollen grains have to be carried to another flower for fertilization, in most instances. That's a pretty random process, and so to insure that it'll happen, a plant produces lots of pollen grains.
