Hold up. They asked “Vim or Emacs?”, not “What’s your favorite editor?” That’s why the answer distribution looks like that. I think we all know there are more normal text editor/IDE users than vi/emacs users.

I use mostly Sublime Text or VSCode, but with Vim plugins. So I'd answer Vim even though I rarely actually use it (mostly on servers).

And it's reasonable to expect that people who use neither vim nor emacs would likely have more exposure with vim rather than emacs.
