(I could be wrong, there's a first time for everything
You're not too far off. I looked on Ford's website, but the best I could do was to find the GAWR for the snowplow package of 5200#. This makes me believe that the GVWR of the standard F250 superduty is in the neighborhood of 9500# (or more).
This guy doesn't say exactly which XML this is, but there are 3 sizes available for the 20" wheel. Of those, the one I think he is selling (based on overall diameter) is the 14.00R20. This tire has a max load of 8040# at 95psi.
There is actually another dimension available for the 20" wheel that has a max load of 9645# @ 95psi.
so, I'd say you're pretty close with your statement of the Superduty GVWR vs the XML Max Load
