To expand on what the XBS's performance means for the other systems, well, assuming $150M in revenue for it that would leave $251M for everything else. Assuming the PS4 & XBO are only 5% of the total revenue, that would leave $231M for the Switch and PS5. Assuming those systems had a SKU split 3:1 in favor of the hybrid and Blu-ray models, respectively, and the PS4 sold 250k, then the Switch would have sold around 410k. If the PS4 sold closer to 230k, the Switch may have sold closer to 440k. If the Switch sold about 500k, though, that would put the PS5 potentially under the 200k mark. Between the two of them, though, the PS5 & Switch sold somewhere between 650-700k, unless the SKU split was much closer than 3:1 in the cheaper models' favor. For example, if it was a 50/50 hybrid/Lite and digital/BD split, then if the PS5 sold 250k the Switch would have sold 474k. If the Switch sold only 425k, the PS5 would have sold 277k. Of course, if the PS4 & XBO had a larger combined revenue share, say, 10%, that would reduce the combined revenue share of the Switch & PS5. But in any case, the PS5 likely sold over 200k and the Switch over 400k. Hopefully we'll get better numbers at some point.

So, how do these numbers align with the VGChartz numbers?
