los Herrera- singular or plural?

I have a homework question- fill in the blank- but I do not know if it should be singular or plural. This is the question:
Si fuéramos todos nosotros, los Herrera no _______ (caber) en el coche.
I am supposed to use the conditional tense, but I'm not sure if it should be "cabría" or "cabrían".
Translated, it says: If we were to all go, (los Herrera???) would not fit in the car.
Thanks for the help!!!

It seems to me that you have to use "cabrían", namely the plural form, because by "Herrera" you refer not to a single person but to a whole family. Besides, it is kind of obvious, since you say los Herrera.
