how many people in the general population have mathematics degrees?

1.3 of undergrad degrees are in mathematics, and only about 40% of USA adults have a bachelors or higher, so about .053% of Americans have math degrees, or we can say 99.47% do not. so out of 2000 people, only 1 of them has a math degree.

The number of people who drive sports cars is also quite small, but that wouldn't make it less silly for the general population to use the term "sports car" exclusively to refer to golf carts.
