Total population

  300,000–350,000 (est.)

Regions with significant populations

  Israel 200,000[1]–250,000[2]
  United States 60,000–80,000[1]
  Iran 9,100[3]
  Canada 1,000
  Australia ~740

Yeah, you misread this badly.

There are 300~350 thousand Jews from Iran, but only 9,100 are estimated to still live there.

To be maximally fair to their argument, I think it is good to point out (not that it's the point that was made but that it's a good point to make) that 9,100 is a distinct departure from 0 when there are other numbers in the tens and hundreds. It's worth questioning the disparity and whether it's indicative of incorrect or misinterpreted data.
