Ron,
They are two different sets of numbers. One number is a crash count and the other is a people count.
Based on the 2006 final figures as they relate to crashes involving a passenger vehicle with a trailing unit:
In 2006, there were 363 fatal crashes in which a total of 419 persons were killed - a crash may
have more than 1 fatality.
have more than 1 fatality.
In 2006, an estimated 12,000 (11,746) crashes occurred where at least one person was injured.
An estimated 20,000 (20,346) persons were injured in those crashes - a crash may have more
than 1 person injured.

Ron Melancon,
Your inquiry has been sent to me for reply. Please see attached for
statistics on crashes, fatalities, and persons injured in crashes
involving a passenger vehicle with a trailing unit from 2002 through
2006. The 2006 final and 2007 data have not yet been released.
Please note that our data does not indicate the cause of a crash so we
cannot say that these crashes occurred because of a loose trailer. The
numbers only indicate the presence of these vehicles in the crash.
In 2004, an estimated 65,000 crashes involving a passenger vehicle with
a trailing unit occurred. Crashes involving a passenger vehicle with a
trailing unit resulted in 422 fatalities and an estimated 27,000 persons
injured. An estimated 47,000 crashes involving passenger vehicles with
a trailing unit resulted in property damage only. The 2004 fatal crash
and fatality numbers have been updated since these figures were reported
(see MELANCON.PDF for finalized figures).
The figures used in the above statements were extracted from PVTOW03.PDF
and PVTOW04.PDF. These figures have since been updated - refer to
MELANCON.PDF for most current data.
We hope you find the information useful.
