All distros combined. All distros are linux. Even ChromeOs is linux but its counted separately.

gotcha. why is ChromeOS separate? or why that and not RHEL?

Same reason android is not counted as Linux, based on Linux but doesn't behave like all the other Linux based distros

It's just arbitrary convention, there isn't a solid taxonomic reason they are separate.
