Are these global population numbers?

No. They are counts of pages on this catalog.

Why so many amphibians or fish?

Those taxa have many photographed CR/EN species on Wikidata. Charisma is not the filter; a Commons file is.

Can I download the table?

Yes. /data/catalog.min.json is the public index.
