Looks more like 10 tons of fuel on each wing of a 737.

It’s still not clear to me where the fuel tank is in the fuselage.

The A380 Airbus carries, get this, half a million pounds of fuel. That’s right.

None of this makes sense.

The source I cited claims a little more than 4 tons in each wing (3900 kg) and a little over 14 tons (13020 kg) in the fuselage tank.

The A380 is about ten times the size of a 737.
