I've read elsewhere that the source of the statistic was state motor vehicle records.

We've speculated many times before about how many are left today, and how many are actually "in use" or roadworthy. The numbers most often presented and agreed to by those with a good feel for this are in the range of 12-15,000 and about 7000 respectively, out of a total production of about 1.6 million. If you take those in the PAC and assume they are all on the road (questionable), add those in CCCA not in PAC, ditto for PI and VMCCA and HCCA, you get about 7000, give or take. The current PAC directory totals just over 6000.
