Perhaps not surprising; in Spain and France for instance, between 70 and 80% of system preorders are of the Mario Kart World bundle.
In Hong Kong and Taiwan, that number is 80-85%.
In Japan, a poll puts the number at 59.5%.
Not surprising though is it.
You'll save 30 bucks with a Bundle that includes the only system seller that will be available in the Launch day, so those numbers seems plausible for me.

I’m in France and will buy it with Mario kart world

If I were to buy a Switch 2 at launch it would 100% be the Mario Kart World bundle. So that isn't surprising. Especially since you save money.

It's a potential killer app, much like its predecessor.
Additionally, when it came to the Switch, copies of Breath of the Wild were outselling the Switch itself.
I describe myself as a little dose of toxic masculinity.
Nintendo charged $80 for the game so more people would buy the $500 Switch 2 bundle.

Personally I would have made Donkey Kong Bananza the bundled in game, but then there would be about another month of waiting and Mario Kart is more likely to be a big draw for a brand new system.
Mario Kart is the game almost everyone is going to want so it's no surprise.
Which makes it a shame that it's a limited bundle that's going to end. I think it's going to be almost impossible to find stock of it closer to launch.

People keep saying this and I don't get it at all lol.
The people buying the bundle want Mario Kart. If Mario Kart was $70 separately they'd still be going for the bundle lol.
