That is the total number of refugees hosted in the EU, not the yearly figure.
Nope, that's 23 million.
Source? Because that is not what the source you linked before says. And also highly unlikely because the global number of refugees according to the same source was 36.4 million at mid-2023.
According to the source, yes, there are currently 36 million refugees globally. Around 10% of those are in the EU. That's 3.6 million.
And that's still the total and not the yearly increase, although admittedly the total did increase recently quite a bit due to the war in Ukraine. And it is still a tiny number compared to the total population in the EU.
