France installed nuclear capacity is 61370 MWe, I suspect you looked at MWth (thermal output, not electrical output).

Currently the capacity factor for french nuclear reactors is less than 50% because of various technical issues and maintenance schedule slippage. It will go further down because of a very hot summer and regulations on maximum released water temperatures.
