This isn't the full picture of those statistics. 10097 games have Platinum or Gold on protondb, out of 11223 with any results at all. It's not that there's 60k games broken on Linux, it's that there just isn't any data on those.

The only correct thing to do here is to extrapolate from the data we have, which is around ~90% of games work on Linux. So it's more like 63 000 vs 70 000.
