From the January seniority list to the February seniority list we lost a total of 40 pilots.
22 went to age 65
4 were over age 64 but less than 65
3 were new hires (less than a year)
11 were between age 51 and 62 (4 were SIC outs)
Basically 26 out of 37 went to age 65 last month.

Here is a little more solid math..
In the last 12 months:
294 dudes retired at 65, 81% of them were on active status, that is 65% of all that retired in last year.
83 dudes retired between 60-64, 65% of them were active pilots. That's 19% of all retired in last year.
54 retired between 50-59, 47% were active, 12% of all in 12 months.
Few more that are younger, about half are active.
Yes, under Trump retirement accounts do much better, but to say that DAL has mass retirements prior to 65 is not the case yet, IMHO.

This puts it at 68% of pilots making retiring from active states at 65 last year. Or 32% of pilots did not make it to 65.
I'd say that could be considered a significant number.
