Perhaps more tellingly this means that Xbox One is, according to the same source, now just a few thousand units short of beating the Wii U’s total UK sales accrued since its release a year ago this week.

Stock permitting Xbox One should shoot ahead of Nintendo’s machine this week. And a strong launch for PS4 this Friday could see Nintendo relegated to third place in the UK next-gen battle.

I wonder if this means we've got Wii U overtracked by quite a bit in the UK. Or does 34k = a few thousand?

While you have a valid point, the rate at which the Xb1 is being sold means that number might as well be a few thousands. Either way if there is supply the XB1 should match or overtake WiiU next week.
