Looking at the amount of photos to sync back to your device, it might really take such a ling time. Especially if you stop the process at some point, because in that case it will start all over again from the beginning.

Also make sure to keep it connected to the charger, your iPhone Wi-Fi connection will be disabled as soon as the phone enters standby, if not charged at the same time.
