Right, I expect that the Netflix traffic numbers are for the last-mile only (CDN to customer). Google's numbers should be from a 1e100.net server to the customer across multiple networks (unless Youtube has some localized CDNs, which would complicate the math).

Google's CDN is huge and extensive. See https://peering.google.com/#/infrastructure

Both Netflix and YouTube have appliances that they provide to ISPs to put inside their networks, serving as extremely local CDNs.
