Where does the Rhinoceros Frog sighting chance come from?

GBIF citizen-science records

It is estimated from how often the Rhinoceros Frog is recorded against all the amphibians logged in Singapore (5 verified sightings), calibrated against known sighting rates. Figures are rounded to the nearest 10% because citizen-science data supports honest approximations, not decimals, and months with records from fewer than five people show "—". How it works.
