Diamond is actually less than 8x Plat. 8x Plat is 560,000 and Diamond is 500,000. There is not a huge difference between 350,000 and 500,000. 150,000 is not as big of a difference as 1,000,000. It also makes no sense to look at one aspect of an artist's career (album sales alone) as the defining factor of which artist is bigger in a country. Even just record sales isn't enough, but it's a far better indicator than just album sales.
Katy performed to over 300,000 Australians (sold out) during the PRISMATIC World Tour. Taylor performed to 240,000 (also sold out). Taylor is supposed to be a much bigger touring force than Katy. That speaks volumes about Katy's impact and power in Australia. Plus Katy's 'The Prismatic World Tour Live' DVD went 2x Plat here.

P!nk is the biggest act in Australia. I'm Not Dead and Funhouse are 11x platinum. The Truth About Love is like 8 times platinum. All of her concert DVDs are multiple times platinum with Live In Australia being something like 30 times platinum. Then you have her 650,000 attendance Funhouse Tour and her 600,000 attendance The Truth About Love Tour. Even 10 years ago she was pulling in 350,000 people on the I'm Not Dead Tour. That's on top of hit singles and multiple #1s
P!nk is a phenomena and nobody else comes close.
