Sounds high to me. How many human piloted aircraft are there in the
world right now? http://answers.google.com/answers/threadview/id/584144.html
Airliners are pretty much drones with on board human supervision occasionally.
There are other more significant threats to gliding and light
aviation. Stupid counter productive authoritarianism and an aging
pilot population.

10. Are you worried about Drones? You should be! The conference
in Switzerland last month brought forth a paper that declared
aviators can expect to compete with seven million drones with seven
metre wing spans by 2030. (400,00 will be commercial
drones). This is news but not good news!
Is that a credible claim?
