I think it's really important to remember this context too.
The results actually show that visitors to sites run by site counters customers show that distribution not that the internet as a whole see's that distribution too don't they?
On a site that I run for developers I see less than 1% IE, on a site that a customer runs that deals with many big corporates it's mostly IE and IE 6 at that. Unfortunately I don't think we'll be seeing the death of older browsers any time soon but in some contexts it's OK not to support them.
