It's comparing data gathered through WHO research (traffic fatalities) with sampling obtained through Wikipedia's list articles. These include mostly incidents significant enough to have their own article.

A less manipulative comparison would be with Wikipedia's list of road accidents.

Also, flood contains one huge outlier in the 1931 China floods in which deaths from subsequent famine and epidemics are included, increasing the number of fatalities from ~150,000 to 4 million, and that is just one example.
