One complication is that burning fuel is so much less efficient than electrical usage If you ignore that, then it radically changes the impression you get from these stats.
The technical terms are "primary energy" (the amount of energy you put in as fuel) and "final energy" the actual useful stuff you want done.
Cars moving to EV will reduce the need for "primary energy" by about 4x if the useful final energy remains flat. Similar for heat pumps for home heating.
