The only source for 7.68M I can find is VGC's 2014 summary. http://www.vgchartz.com/article/252934/xbox-one-2014-sales-overview-768m-units-sold-3964m-games-sold/
Every non-VGC article I've located all reference VGC as the source. So I'm not sure how you can use VGC data to claim VGC is over tracking. So basically we're back to an estimate of 11.9M shipped LTD from the horse's mouth (MS), or at least dediuced since the horse mouth only stated combined 360+one shipments. And VGC's 10.99M sell through being a fairly reasonable estimate based on that sort of shipment level.

There you have it; add that number to VGC's 2013 sales (3.08M) and you get 10.76M for X1 sales through Y2014, which is 440K short of where it is on the main page today (11.2M). VGC has it at 230K for the first 2 weeks of 2015, which us 210K short of where it should be (based on the annual numbers).

Insiders say Xbone sales for 2013 wasn't even close to 3m. More like 2.3m. That 3m figure came from some very "generous" and unrealistic rounding.
Xbone sell-through #s closer to 9m.
