How do those numbers relate to the total number of users that upgraded?  Are the powerPC folks
a large or small percentage at this point?

The previous numbers are out of 87860 users who requested if an upgrade is available (not who upgraded, something I can't know). So expressed as percentage, it gives 0.5% of users who use Java 5, and 0.11% who run Sweet Home 3D on a PowerPC (i.e. 1.4% of users under Mac OS X).
It's a small percentage, but why should they be abandoned?
