Yes, a severe toilet leak can theoretically waste 100 gallons of water an hour or more if a fill valve mechanism sticks completely open, a large tank crack develops, or a flush valve stays jammed wide open. A continuous high-flow running leak can easily consume over 2,400 gallons of water in a single 24-hour period, leading to a massive spike in your municipal water utility bill and potential localized flooding. Verification: Check your water meter dial when no household taps are running to confirm if the leak indicator is spinning rapidly.
