There is no way to know. They have stats of how many innocent people were sent to prison then freed with dna evidense... some of which were on death row and would have been put to death, but there is no real percent out there. With this rush-to-conviction society we live in though I'd say your 6% estimation is extremley conservative. I wouldn't be surprised if it's double that.
