Make that Big NEOs. I think there is a mistake in the reported distance from Earth's orbit, though.

Yes, it's meant to be 4.7 *million* miles -
APOD
says it's 7.5 million km.
Neat graphic, even if stuff like this makes things appear worse than they are simply due to the thickness of orbital paths - at this scale they're probably an order of a lunar distance "thick" or thereabouts.
