I too followed and saw I would have to join Statistic Brain and declined. It is best to realize anything on the internet can be false. Haha! As you noted. I too found that number quite high and thought how could they quantify such a statistic.

No argument here. Lovely to meet someone who checks facts. Perhaps we can apply Hitchen's razor here.
Let's go with wikipedia's definition of Hitchen's razor:

Hitchens's razor is an epistemological razor asserting that the burden of proof regarding the truthfulness of a claim lies with the one who makes the claim, and if this burden is not met, the claim is unfounded, and its opponents need not argue further in order to dismiss it.
