  They didn't take a study specifically to find out how many people have a college degree, they likely did a study of studies tracking all the studies (of which there are many) that somewhere ask people their age and education level. Mapping all that together gives you this result. Most studies that aren't about age-specific tasks or topics will gradiate on 17-20 / 20-24. Remember all those studies that look at teenage pregnancy rates in the 17-20 age? Heh, studies of studies.
