 I take that back.  She probably will be the first.  The Beatles chart history is kind of confusing.  Their first few albums released in the US were not studio albums by which we know them today, they were combinations of singles from full studio albums released in the UK.  As a consequence, the album isn't officially listed as having 
any singles.  Despite this, 
I Want To Hold Your Hand was definitely an official single and shipped 3,400,000 copies in the first few weeks.
The moment in time when The Beatles achieved 3 number one singles while also having a number one album was a really Beatles-packed time.  Each of these three singles replaced the former, so they were all consecutive, and at the same time, The Beatles also had the #1 album on the chart, 
Meet The Beatles.  However, I don't think the third single was actually from 
Meet The Beatles; I think it was from 
The Beatles' Second Album, which replaced 
Meet The Beatles at #1 on the Billboard 200 while 
She Loves You was still #1 on the Hot 100.  
Bottom line: Billboard probably does consider her the first to win that distinction with careful wording.
