Where does this data come from?

The SEC publishes every registered investment adviser representative and their firms each day. Financial ADVSR compares each day's file with the one before: an advisor who gains a firm counts as joining it, one who loses it as leaving. A departure counts only when the advisor shows up at another firm within 45 days; advisors who simply drop out of the file (retirements, broker-only roles, gaps in a day's file) aren't counted.
