The Xbox one’s sudden surge is all due to the slimmer Xbox One which was introduced recently and by more aggressive marketing and price cuts, and after a short while Sony introduced their own slimmed down version of the Ps4 in September but with sales being a little lacking probably due to most gamers eagerly awaiting the beefed up spec Ps4 Pro out in November 2016.
