Difficult to call both stats similar, when the differences are 100% or more.
But there is a trend developing.

Really all we can count that is 100% or greater is titles, which MS obviously wins. But I can't say it's fair to even count fastest laps, as they no longer pay points. MS had incentive back in the day to get fastest lap, in todays F1 is just means you get fastest lap and no points.

IMO poles, fastest laps, laps led, etc don't amount to much. They are great for records, but don't always reflect on the title standings. A pole without a podium or win < a bad start, no fast lap and a podium finish.
