That reference is actually in Akallabeth. Page 330 of the 1979 Ballantine Books Edition of The Silmarillion (it is the only mention in Akallabeth about the Nazgul, all the other mentions are either in LotR or of the Rings of Power and the Third Age):
"Yet Sauron was ever guileful, and it is said that among those, whom he ensnared with the Nine Rings three were great lords of Numenorean race."
