There are two points here:
​
Firstly we don't really know how the constants involved actually came to take the values that they do. Any probability argument at this stage is little more than a wild guess.
​
Secondly multiple "universes" are a consequence of some cosmologies - so this idea comes prior to the suggestion that it could solve the potential problem of how our universe came to have the particular constants that it does.
