Steam deck is a top seller on steam when they release a new steam deck, and nothing much else has released recently.
It would be news if it wasn't
Also, it's not clear if Valve is just comparing Steam Deck sales against other hardware Valve sells or against game sales.
If its against other Valve hardware, the measurement of "top seller" is a joke.
...what isn't clear about it, Steam top sellers list has always been total revenue of everything sold on Steam. Even F2P games with microtransactions are counted.
