The total number of self-identified Jews, whether practicing or not, surveyed in the roughly 135 countries of the world where they're found, amounts to about 0.2% (two tenths of one percent) of the world's population.

According to the Jewish Agency, for the year 2007 there were 13.2 million Jews worldwide; 5.4 million (40.9%) in Israel, 5.3 million (40.2%) in the United States, and the remainder distributed in communities of varying sizes around the world; this represents 0.2% of the current estimated world population.

Approx. 2 million out of the 12 million Jews are Orthodox. It is estimated that within 50 years the majority of Jews will be Orthodox.

Answer

The previous answer is incorrect. Reform Judaism is statistically the fastest growing Jewish denomination. Furthermore, there are approximately 14 million Jews in the world as of 2014.

The real answer is that approximately 5 million Jews out of 14.5 million identify as Orthodox, including those that are affiliated with Orthodox synagogues, but may not follow certain mitzvot.
