Hook said last week Merlin was in the tree for 30 years. Then Merlin corrected him, saying 1000. Then this episode established it was 200 years ago, when Nimue was the first Dark One. Despite Rumple and Hook both being 200-300 years old, meaning there's no way there could be all those hooded figures between Nimue and Zoso.

I have the same questions too, but I need to point out that Hook did say 1,000 years, not 30. I thought he said 30 years the first few times I watched. His accent was too strong in that line.
