How did Microsoft arrive at this conclusion? Easy.
1) Faulty definitions of malware. 2) Poor detection rates of acknowledged types of malware in their own tool. 3) Refusal to take into account that users probably scan their box with other anti-malware tools. All of the above is pure speculation, but it would be easy for them to skew the data even just with the first idea. For example, LavaSoft AdAware artificially inflates the quantity of reported malware by including relatively harmless tracking cookies and MRU lists. It would be only too easy for MS to do something similar in a reverse direction. Jam it back in, in the dark.
