Almost every move white can make leads to mate, so I guess I was a bit harsh. Counting them all is tedious, though.

38 moves:
7 = pawns: a8=Q; a8=B; hxg8=Q; hxg8=B; d8=Q; d8=R; e4
8 = knight moves: Nf6; Nc7 and Nb4; Nb2; Nc1; Ne1; Nf2; Nf4
(not Nc5 because it allows Kc6)
6= rook moves: all 6 squares on c-file other than Rc6 because that allows Kxc6; none for the other rook
13 = bishop moves: none for the white squared; all 13 squares for the other
4 = queen moves: Qf7; Qe6; Qf3; Qe4
0= king moves

I was referring to the question being ambiguous [ spelt wrong π ]
How many moves in one = one π
The real answer takes too much time and patience which are not vitues of mine π
