TWiki.TWikiHistory is a start to answer the bigger part of your questions. The development costs are pretty difficult to guess, since many contributed spare time (and still do) which is never counted, but the release notes of every version can give an overview of how many developers were involved.

Ohloh lists many open source project and estimates the cost if it would have been developed commercially. TWiki is listed at http://www.ohloh.net/projects/3701, with an estimated cost of $11,784,027
