I wouldn't be surprised if some models of iPad had sold in excess of 20 million units. I don't see how that takes anything away from the C64. It was still a pioneering product with a lasting legacy. You need to factor in that the market has grown a /bit/ since the 80's. World population has grown, middle classes have grown, interest in computing has grown.

But I liked the idea that there still are single computer models (not families) that break sales records. It's just that we don't think about them as machines, but as products within a family and on a steady development iteration.
