MIA-IAD is less than a 1000 nm hop, so the question is really "was the fuel cheaper in Miami, so they tanked up there and only topped up in Washington?" (unlikely, flying fuel around is a waste of money in most cases).
Otherwise, the max fuel on Concorde is listed as 26,400 gallons (Imp), so if you feel like it, you can do the sums with the figures quoted on the Heritage Concorde site.
