Not true; this assumes that any god must be a necessary being, which is not a claim of polytheism.

As polytheism is an error, anyone can invent any version of polytheism that they want. One such version is many necessary gods, or again another version, is many contingent gods. Both are false and both imply the truth of monotheism.
