I have to ask…are the dividends from the total amount of dividends that the stocks earn and they will be passed to the investors or are those his dividend’s because he owns shares?

Big difference if this money is going to pay dividends to investors.

That's the amount that he (his company, Berkshire Hathaway) received as dividend. But due to how the market works, if it wasn't paid as a dividend, it would have been realized in share price increase instead.
