Just a theory but I think they mean that Skyrim outsold all exclusives even down at the platform level. With one caveat, they're speaking of NPD numbers only. Skyrim sales on the X360 are about on par with Gears 3 in NA and on the PS3 Skyrim bested Uncharted's NA numbers in 2011.
I think this article is one of all these articles that mixes apples and pears. In one sentence they refer to regional sales and in the next they're comparing worldwide numbers.
