what was the methodology to measure those deaths? did the CIA count every single body or something? or was it a mathematical model, drawing on some assumptions which may or may not be true? or even perhaps, a wild guess?

Item 1953 1964
Total Population (10 000 persons) 59435 69458
Hmmm... the Great Leap Forward occured, supposedly, 1958-1962.
