I think the answer is
100000
because these are all
currency denominations expressed in cents? 100000 = $1000 bill
That said, the one thing that is stumping me is that
I would've thought the next numbers would have been 1000, 2000, 5000 instead of 10000, 20000, 50000 (in which case the next number should be 10000 = $100 bill).

$\begingroup$ You're absolutely right, sorry for the flaw, the right numbers were "1000", "2000" and "5000". The next bill is the 100$ Bill, 10000 expressed in cents. $\endgroup$ Jul 27, 2018 at 14:04

$\begingroup$ No worries on the error, it was still an understandable puzzle IMO! I think we're on quite a roll here -- 4 in a row for the two of us, we make quite the battery! See you soon! :D $\endgroup$– El-GuestJul 27, 2018 at 14:16

Maybe
100000000
Because
The numbers of 0 are doubled every time it passes the 5*
