That's what the post you linked to says, but I don't see how from the chart they link to or any other statistics they can possibly tell what percentage of accounts are "spam accounts." By definition these accounts are being allowed through and not detected, so there's no way for anyone to know how many there are.
I honestly wonder if they just looked up "what percentage of accounts on a typical website are bots" on google and multiplied that by the number of accounts.
