Considering the vast number of people who have ever lived and the fact that we've only recently begun keeping rigorous records of longetivity, do you think a human has ever lived past age 122?

Methuselah was over 900
Yes, the Bible has many reports of such people.
Almost certainly not. If living to 122 is 1/7 billion now WITH modern medicine, it would be an even smaller likelihood in the past, and since there weren't 7 billion people living in all of past history combined, there's basically no chance.

The estimated population of humanity over the course of its run on Earth is estimated to be around 30 billion IIRC

It's possible. But it's becoming more possible with Western medical care to see people push up the maximum living age by something like 1 year every 15 years. I don't know the exact metric and would like to see some base numbers to support this assertion.
