Solution

The correct option is B No error
The given sentence sounds complete in meaning and grammatical structure. The parts 'A census', 'revealed', 'only' and 'people' have no error in them.
The sentence means that: a survey (census) was taken of the island and it was found (revealed) that there were only 10,000 people on that island.
Hence option E is correct and the rest of the options, A, B, C and D are incorrect.
