Is it true that 1/3 of cat roadkill is the result of engine compartment hitchhiking?

I have heard that a large percent of dead cats and raccoons seen by the side of the highway are the result of animals hiding in engine compartments to stay warm. Then they jump out while the car is travelling and are run over by the vehicle they had been in or one that is following behind. Is this true?
