That's like 14% of all women between 40 and 69 have never been married. Ever. I would have thought it was in the single digits.

I don't think the article said anywhere that 60% of women aged 40-69 are single. It said that 60% of the singles are women. I agree with Burger that another limiting factor of the survey is determining whether it is truly a representative sampling of all single women in that age group or if the likelihood of responding varied across groups of singles.
All it really says is that 1/4 of single survey respondents who were women aged 40-69 had never married.
And now I am boring myself.
