The calculations work the same way. A sidewalk can hold far more people in the same space than a road full of cars can, no matter how intelligent the cars.
Your point is an argument in favour of extending subway coverage and doesn't change the basic physics of how cars and trains utilise space.
You have forgotten about the human actually getting to the subway station in the first place. You need to include the distance from every person to the subway station they want in your length calculation.
You also need to include how long it takes the person to get there in your minute calculations.
