The Olympic Carrier carried exactly 1,345 people, as explicitly told. The 2,028 figure is inaccurate because in a deleted scene on the DVD which likely occurred mid-episode, it is specifically shown that there are exactly 49,317 survivors left, according to the White Board. This had been rounded down from 49,998 earlier in the episode, likely due to the fact that they were continuing to revise estimates of total population and eliminating overcounts or adjusting for wounded people who had died.
