3nm (or any "node" measurement) is not a measure of the entire transistor, only of the smallest feature size.

  What do you mean by "feature size"?

    A semiconductor is made of multiple surfaces/areas. Their lithographic process allows to have some at 3nm in size, but a transistor can be a sum of many parts.

    A very rough approximation would be to describe a wind-up watch (processor) by the smallest tooth of the smallest gear (component of the transistor)
