Pretty sure most of the (logic) transistor count records are held by FPGAs, no?

Not at the clock speeds that nvidia chips run at.
I guess you're right:

But they are very different beasts with different technology and a different (much smaller) market, right?

You are right: 2.6B for CPU, 4.3B for GPU and 6.8B for FPGA.
