Strictly talking about statistics, it depends on the context. From everyone who bought the game, 39% started it. From everyone one who played the game (so started it) 79% completed the first level.

On steam it's always a percentage of the people who bought the game/added it to their library

It actually only includes people who launched the game. This achievement essentially shows how many people actually clicked play after launching.
