Thomas, Denny, Sebastian, Thomas, and I have published a paper which was
accepted for the industry track at WWW 2016. It covers the migration
from Freebase to Wikidata. You can now read it here:

I must admit that, despite knowing the context, I wasn't able to understand whether this is the number of "mapped"/"translated" statements or the number of statements actually added via the primary sources tool. I assume the latter given paragraph 5.3:

used by more than a hundred users who performed about
90,000 approval or rejection actions. More than 14 million
statements have been uploaded in total." I think that means that ≤ 90,000 items or statements were added of 14 million available to be add through Primary Sources tool.
