I faintly recall Salem narrating something about man evolving from "dust," but not the magic kind because that gets introduced later in the monologue as though it were a completely different thing.

Not sure if the question of timescale is really worth contemplating in this situation since we know so little about the process by which it happens and it doesn't really impact the story whether it took 200 years or 200 million years. (Although I will admit it pushes the envelope of disbelief.)

Keep in mind that the original humans were created on the spot by the gods: there's no idication that they evolved from common ancestor the way we did.
