Yes, those odds seem inconceivably low. If an unguided rock can hit a plane with that frequency (1 in 20 times), you'd think we'd be able to develop an anti-ballistic missile system that worked.
They said there was a 1 in 20 chance that some plane in the last 20 years could have been taken down with a meteor. Not that 1 in 20 meteors takes down a plane.
