Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't this conflating CPU TDP and overall system consumption? When a system is under maximum sustained load, power consumption increases are not limited to the CPU or SoC. I suspect the figures published by Apple (6.8W and 39W) represent the absolute theoretical extremes possible by the system, not typical numbers for real-world idle and load.
