I guess it might be possible since there isn't something like a catalytic converter for tires (or brakes) and they could also be including EVs or bikes etc. which would inflate the figure
for brakes this totally makes sense as the bottom of cars tends to be covered in brake dust but it would imply EV's with regenerative braking would be an improvement.
