You think Sonys going for that "close to 20 mil shipment" anouncment for the PSX?

Probably. Why would they saturate the market like that? Unless they knew there was still a huge demand.

 

Im going to see if my friend can compare to the Xbox One shipment

My guess?  They're looking beyond Black Friday and Cyber Monday, to also pad stock for December.  December will be another massive month for all consoles, and like living paycheck to paycheck, the worst you want to be doing right now is selling consoles from shipment to shipment.  Much better to have more stock than necessary, than to run out for a couple days in the biggest shopping weeks/months of the year.
