No, you're misinterpreting it. The Northeast produces more than the southeast. What that map says is that the Northeast's GDP is approximately that of Japan (both ~$4.3 trillion), but $40 billion more than Japan's. Similarly, the Southeast's GDP is $216 billion more than that of the UK (both ~$2.5 trillion).
