They're wrong.
A better calculation would be # of registered steam users.

Recent numbers of that are around 80 million.

I know people that have 3 steam accounts because they got banned on "X" game.... Also, not everyone uses steam, some people use just Origin, or Desura, or some don't use anything and play games like WoW or other games. Plus people who play browser games. They would technically be PC gamers.
