My guess: that may be an overestimation of the number accepted ED 1 and 2 combined. I have not seen official confirmation of what percent was accepted ED. It’s probably around 1000 tops, if they accepted in the neighborhood of what they said they would (they originally planned 40% of the class; 920). They accepted just over 600 of around 1700 ED1 (rate 36%), leaving around 1050 ED2 apps. My guess is >300 accepted ED2.

It would be interesting to know whether there were any last-minute recalculations of their yield algorithm for RD, for obvious reasons.
