Not to reduce the impact sexual assault has every time it occurs, but I’m assuming that USA number isn’t cited as rape for a reason, especially since the source does use the word rape further down. Perhaps that explains the disparity?
Rape is legally considered exclusively an act done by a man to a woman, therefore counts exclude raped committed against men
Finally due to stigma in the country and the judicial system often trying to shelter men who commit assault, cases go under-reported and under-prosecuted, lessening the count.

There’s a ton more to it than that, for example:
Martial rape is not considered a crime in India
Rape is legally considered exclusively an act done by a man to a woman, therefore counts exclude raped committed against men
