OP has provided the right links but either misunderstood the text or phrased it very confusingly.

Ethereum's crowdsale supply was 72 million ETH. Of that 60 million were sold for BTC in the crowdsale. 6 million was given to the Ethereum Foundation and 6 million to early contributors (overall 20% of what was sold was created as a pre-mine).

Now Ethereum's supply is ~122 million, so the miners produced 50 millions new ETH.
