That's probably right.

However, there are release statistics at
http://bsdstats.org/releases.php

At the time of this writing, it's 1344 (6.x) vs 1152 (4.x).
However, those numbers are probably not very meaningful
either, because they represent only a very small fraction
of all FreeBSD users.

Best regards
