They state quite clearly at the bottom of the browser stats this exact fact. If you want a realistic set of stats, check out either the NetApps stats, which are collected from major search engines and portals (http://marketshare.hitslink.com/browser-market-share.aspx?qprid=0) or StatCounter GlobalStats, which are taken from many websites that implement their statistics service (http://gs.statcounter.com/). IE6 is thankfully on the way out, and I've lost countless hours to this monstrosity, but let's be realistic here.

They likely have many corporate users, but considering we had to fulfill compatibility requirements for any browser that had more than a 1% share, working with IE6 is likely to be around for a very long time to come, whether MS support it or not. It's a complex site with lots of built-in apps, and I would estimate IE6 support increased development costs for the styling by about 25%.  A recent project I was involved with for a large music site saw 30% of their users still using IE6!
