As far as I can conceive it, there are ideas about "non-physical things" and then the non-physical things themselves. Numbers, for example, would be the ideas about NPT. What they represent about the world would be the NPT themselves. Other NPT might fall into those categories too... truth, value, etc. In that regards I don't see a conflict between Platonism and a physical mind.

But I was also surprised about that.
