I still havent read the book, but didnt I hear that he listed The Holy Blood and the Holy Grail as a source somewhere? I could be wrong. Either way, great timing for this since it will give the movie more of a pull to go see what the big deal is and both books will also get a new surge of readers... its all about the money.
