I couldn't find the original article, but very similar articles cite this survey: https://mapresearch.org/brief/new-survey-reveals-dramatic-changes-for-lgbtq-adults-since-november-2024/ It seems like the article writers use the results from that survey together with population metrics to get the 400,000 number.
