I can't find my original reference, but here's once that doesn't factor in the difference: https://www.energy.gov/ne/articles/infographic-how-much-powe...
I highly doubt that. The Tricastin NPP for instance (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tricastin_Nuclear_Power_Plant) is a rather average one, producing up to 3660MW. An average windmill output stand around 2.5MW, hence equivalent 1464 windmills simultaneously running before accounting for the load factor.

This one is about a nuclear reactor, not an NPP. Typical NPPs features 2 to 6 reactors.

56 NPPs, 809,410,000 MWh (actually generated)

~60,000 wind turbines (I've seen numbers between 57,000 and 67,000.)

338,000,000 MWh (actually generated)
1NPP -> 14,453,750 MWh/yr
1WT -> 5633 MWh/yr
1NPP == 2600 WT
You are absolutely correct.
Nope. Average charge load for a windmill is ~35%, vs. over 90% for NPPs. Thus, you would need roughly thrice as many, and that in places with alternating winds – otherwise you would just get blackouts.
