The more I've been thinking about it too... There may be 350 million people in the US, but not that many are in the workforce... So when you put 2-3 million people against the working population (which I'm too lazy to look up on my phone at the moment) that's probably a sizable chunk.

According to the BLS that number is 251.747 million as of November 2015. Using the 1.8 million number you're looking at 0.715% of the labor force being in trucking.
