Sony changed the way to report shipments data after FY2006.

Production Shipment: http://web.archive.org/web/20120609161654/http://scei.co.jp/corporate/data/bizdataps2_e.html
Units Sales (Shipment to retail): http://web.archive.org/web/20120609180536/http://scei.co.jp/corporate/data/bizdataps2_sale_e.html

If you sum both you will have a number ~1.5 million bigger than real shipment/production because the shift from FY2006 to FY2007 counted the same units two times (produced in the Q4 FY2006 and shipped to retail in Q1 FY2007).
