Why Prada is killing it (cnn.com)

I'm a little curious about this line from the article:

"Here's the basic idea: 54.5% of U.S. consumers make less than $100,000 a year"

According to wikipedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Household_income_in_the_United_...), a household income of $100k would put someone in the 84th percentile. They put the 54th percentile at around $50k.

Any idea what I'm misunderstanding here?
