TiB  specifically means  Tebibyte

 

2 TiB   =   2 Tebibytes   =   2 * 240  bytes   =   2 * 240 * 8  bits   =   2 * 240 * 23  bits   =   244  bits

 

There are  244  bits total. We want to know how many  64-bit words  will  "fit into"  that.

 

number of 64-bit words that can be held  =  \(\dfrac{2^{44}}{64}\ =\ \dfrac{2^{44}}{2^{6}}\ =\ 2^{44-6}\ =\ 2^{38}\)  .
