That whole article is total nonsense.
The article is from US News
U.S. News is headquartered in Washington, D.C.
The company is privately owned by Mortimer B. Zuckerman
Zuckerman .. the son of Esther and Abraham Zuckerman, .... His family is Jewish, and his grandfather was an Orthodox rabbi.
You can dismiss it all you want, but my guess is that Mortimer Zuckerman is far more up-to-date and on the ball than you.
About 7/800 thousand left Israel, mainly for Jordan
and that number has grown to about 2.5 million. All classed as refugees because Palestinians are the only refugees in the world who can pass refugee status down through the generations.
Your 'alternative' figures are a gross underestimate. Where did you get them from?
Nearly 2,000,000 were displaced from Gaza alone during the current violence meted out to Palestinians by Israel, as of January 2024.
Thousands fled during the Nakba, Thousands fled during the 1967 war.
Some have been living in the Jerash refugee camp, run by the
United Nations Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA), since the 1960s.
Displaced from the Gaza Strip during the 1967 Arab-Israeli war, Gazans are part of the over 2 million Palestinian refugees in Jordan
Israel’s war on Gaza that erupted in 2023 continues a long history of systemic displacement of Palestinians.

Because they're not allowed to return, the rights of their property has been handed down.
Unlike Jews who are allowed to return even though they've never lived there.
It's also a nonsense to class the 2 million plus population of Gaza as refugees., If most of the world recognise Gaza as an independent state, how can it's entire population be classed as refugees?
They fled Gaza in 1967, and have not been allowed back by Israel.
A further indication that Israel wants to clear all Palestinians from Gaza.
The concern of neighbouring countries is that Israel is trying to drive Palestinians into their territory.
As for comparing the false numbers to the number of jews killed in the holocaust, that's a sick statement even for this thread.
If the numbers of Palestinian refugees are caused by Israel intentionally forcing them out, just like the original Nakba, then the comparison is very appropriate.
You might not like the comparison because you don't like the horrific truth.
Anyway, I'll leave you jew haters to it for a while to stew in your own hatred and bile.
Here we go, no sensible response to the horrific truth, so here come the false allegations yet again.
Yet again you've demonstrated that you are incapable of intelligent discussion and analysis. So you run away from the truth.
