There's no bulk delete for blocked numbers on iPhone. Go to Settings > Apps > Phone > Blocked Contacts, tap Edit, then remove them one at a time (or swipe left on a number and tap Unblock). With 4,000 it will take a while. If you only want fewer spam calls going forward, try Settings > Apps > Phone > Unknown Callers > Silence, which means you don't need to keep adding numbers.

Thank you 😊 so far it’s either unblock the blocked calls one at a time which would probably be extremely annoying or this way, thanks again
Also, if you have a Mac, you can bulk delete those blocked numbers on that platform and they will sync to a phone using the same Apple Account. Unfortunately on the iPhone/iPad removing blocked numbers is one at a time.
