In the 1997 film, it splits between the third and fourth funnels, but more recent theories suggest it split between the second and third funnels, as seen in this video.
I think the fall of the third funnel happening right after the breakup caused the survivors to think that way. The 4th funnel still remains fallen on the boat deck, and is clearly visible unlike the 3rd, which is already underwater or out of sight from the survivors.Then why were there a good number of survivors that specifically place the break up at after the third funnel.

Also, most of the lifeboats are facing the stern, and the 3rd funnel uptake and deckhouse is barely noticeable when the ship broke, so its easy to assume that the ship broke aft of the 3rd funnel.
