I am sure this has been surpassed by now.

I'm unsure whether such a claim has ever been made. And if it had, all the context for the conditions of the 'test' would have to be provided.
Official EPA numbers are all generated on dynamometers, with 'fudge-factors' applied, to attempt an adjustment to 'real-world' driving.
No claim could be accepted on face without all the conditions.
Currently, the highest mpg-e would be attributed to the M-B EQXX driven on dark side of the Moon.
