I wonder if the methodology used is quite right, given the gap is so large? Have they taken all passengers through the terminal and all users through the airport station? Not all station users will be airport passengers, there might be a fair number of employees and commuters too. Even if there are relatively few in number if the average computer is doing 4 journeys a week that will soon mount up - especially over a short sample period.
You raised those interesting points when I reported in post number 3799 that 46% of SEN passengers used the train. The Airport Consultative Committee Minutes for their September 2019 meeting say that "The airport has commissioned the CAA to conduct continual passenger travel surveys in the airport departures area." Assuming it was the result of one of these CAA surveys that was being reported on, that would suggest that only air travellers, and not any other users of the trains, would have been surveyed.
