Van Halen are higher, but Queen are lower? How odd

I'm not particular bothered about sales, it's the quality of music that I care about. Great music doesn't exactly mean loads of sales.

The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, Status Quo, The Eagles, Led Zeppelin, Deep Purple, Pink Floyd, Queen,AC/DC, U2 and Bon Jovi - as far as I know, these are all rock bands that sold more than 100 Mio.
Metallica and Aerosmith are getting close to.

On the other and, there are quite a few of pop acts that have sold more than 100 Mio but I don't know them all:
Madonna, Whitney Houston, Mariah Carey - are just a few.

Bon Jovi sold more than Queen?

No offence, but I think Queen's legacy is a *bit* bigger than Bon Jovi's will ever be

Or is that just a European thing to think
