Listen here, dummy. The joke plays on the absurdity of the statistic. It exaggerates the rate of stabbings to such a ridiculous extent (24 times a second!) that it becomes darkly humorous. The punchline, "Poor bastard!", adds to the morbid humor by expressing sympathy for this hypothetical person who is getting stabbed a lot.
