Apparently I was wrong. According to your figures, the Third Estate did own land.
The answer to your original question might be that only 2% of the population owned 30% of the land, while 98% of the population owned the rest.

It should also be noted that the Third Estate were mostly poor, but they were heavily taxed to pay for the luxuries of the First and Second Estates.

That isn't the answer I suggested above.
Besides -- the Second Estate OWNED land, but they didn't WORK on it. They hired Third Estate laborers to farm the land.
