I think you're mistaken here because for one SMO launched in the last 3 days of October so most of it's impact is in November where Switch blew away other platforms. and secondly we know from Nintendo's themselves that around 2m units were moved in December because they confirmed 10m sold via their PR in the first week of December then with the end of year financial report almost 13m had been moved these are not average sales like you're saying.

switch got blown out of the water in november by 800k vs ps4, and 600k xbox one. it won December it beat xbox by 130k i believe while ps4 had a bad December because xbox was so much cheaper selling 1.1 million.  

You're thinking of only NPD not WW for example the last two weeks of December Switch sold 1.2m and 640k units while in comparison PS4 sold 890k and 545k units with X1 at 477k and 277k units, financial report ending September Switch was at around 7m this means in Q4 it moved 5m or so around 2m of which we know was in December that leaves 3m for the other two months. These are not average sales like you say as it was a top selling platform in the period SMO released and even in the 3 days of October it released Switch sold 310k units WW PS4 that week sold 289k and this was when supply issues were still around.
