So if we get an accuracy of 100 km the centroid cities are good enough.

Can the accuracy of the centroid city be determined from the actual calculations, or their development? Every time another city is added, the centroid might change. But how likely is it that this happens. That depends on the size and relative population of the added city. And it depends on weighted distance to the runnerup centroid city. If the weighted distance is very larger, adding other cities will nut budge the winner city.

Can this approach also be used to get an indication of country size?
