I would advise caution when dating records by this book. My impression is that older 78s often had a long shelf-life compared to the fast turnover of 45s in later years, and so it's quite possible that a record could be counted for these 'charts' some time after release.

If it's just inaccuracy in the uploading on this site, then there would be examples of 78 release dates both before and after the dates in the book - but I'm betting nearly every case has the 45 Worlds date earlier than the book - which is feasible.
