I have a gaming PC as well but I am sure that as the total amount of console buyers out there, they do not have a gaming PC or its not at the same level to play MS first party games.

Did a quick addition of GPU's on the Steam hardware statistics and over 50% of steam users have GPU's that exceed the Xbox One.

That's over 90 million PC gamers. 90 million.

Please note: It was only quick and dirty, I only counted high-end GPU's and mid-high-end, I didn't count mid-range GPU's which are often faster than the Xbox One.

Roughly 7% of all Steam users have a GPU faster than Scorpio. That's roughly 12.6 million gamers.
It's actually higher than that as Steam doesn't count Multi-GPU configurations and doesn't count GPU's like Fury, 295 X2, Radeon Pro Duo, Titan, Titan XP, Titan Black etc' in it's main statistics.

I don't think you should underestimate what PC gamers have or how large the market is. It's bigger than Xbox.

Exceeding the X1 is nothing.  Meeting the recommended specs for the game on the PC is the key.  The two are not the same thing.
