This pollution is exceptional, this is due a good weather and winds coming from the more industrial east.
The situation returns to normal.

The majority of the adult (15-85) doesn't smoke in France. There are no way 6-7 million people smoking in Paris metropolitan area.
It is more like 3 million.

People are not allowed to smoke in bars and in other enclosed public space, this is including office and other workspaces except in special smoking spaces but most office buildings don't have those, thus smokers smoke outside).
Similar law is comming for e-cig.
