You have to read carefully the article to extract the information. This is like the opposite of journalism.

tldr:

* 903,000 vehicle miles traveled during commercial driverless ride-hailing in May (57% increase from April).

* Waymo increased from 250 taxis last August to 300 in May.

So there's almost no new taxis, the increase comes from an increased utilization of the fleet.

A 2016 Muni analysis said that daily VMT in SF was 6 million and that Uber+Lyft were 570k of that, so given that scale Waymo would be about 5% of TNC traffic and 0.5% of all VMT.

The 903k miles driven is across all of California while the 20% month over month increase in Waymo cars from 250 to 300 was just in San Francisco.
