Before any adjustments are done VGChartz estimates has PS5 at 59.80 million units sold compared to 61.7 million shipped for a gap of 1.9 million units. That is most likely overtracked given what the gap was at the end of March.
Sony had PS5 sell-through at 56M at the end of FY23, which ended March 31, 2024 (likely rounded, so could be 55.50M-56.49M), compared to "more than 59.2 million" shipped. That is a gap of 2.7M-3.7M.

Given only 2.4M PS5s were shipped in the April to June quarter the gap has likely shrunk down a bit, but it should still be over 2M.
I'll wait until the morning or afternoon (my time being EDT) before doing any adjustments as it is 2:30am for me right now and I need to head to bed.
Edit: I've gone and adjusted our PS5 estimates and we now have it at 59.3M lifetime for a gap of 2.3M. That is down from a gap of 2.7M-3.7M (according to Sony's data) at the end of March.
