In terms of GREET, WtW is ~17% of the total, and ~25% of the Carbon emissions (2.31kg from the gallon of gas and .59kg from upstream extraction, refining, and transportation) of a gallon of gasoline (~36+kWh).
Sorry, I'm not following your meaning here. Could I see it more schematically perhaps ?
As an example, when I say that WtW is 24 lbs of C02 per gallon petrol, I mean the following:
4 lbs from well to car
20 lbs from car
Since C02 is proportional to energy content, and a gallon of petrol has 33.7 kWh, it follows that the source had 24/20 more energy, or 24*33.7/20 = 40.44 kWh. Therefore 40.4 - 33.7 = 6.7 kWh (energy, NOT electricity) was expended in going from well to car.
This gives us some context to answer your claim that an electric fleet could have simply been run on the energy input (assuming it was all NG) since we know that 6.7 kWh was 'invested' in order to retrieve 40.4 kWh, for a "ROI" of ~ 5.0. Unless the NG can be used close to or more than 5x times more efficiently than oil the claim does not pass the sniff test.
In CA NG is converted to electricity at ~ 45% thermo efficiency, then
~ 7% is lost to transmission,
then ~ 15% is lost to charging,
then 3% is lost from battery to gearing,
For a total NG to car drivetrain of 45*0.93*0.85*0.97 = 34.6% utilization of source NG energy
Compare that to a Prius which combusts the petrol directly in the range of 30-35% thermo (45 - 55 MPG) utilization*.

At the risk of beating a poor dead horse ..
You can take 6.7 kWh of NG, convert it to 2.3 kWh electricity and travel about 6.9 miles in a Tesla Model S; or perhaps 9 miles in a LEAF. Or you can
Take the 6.7 kWh NG , make a gallon of petrol for a Prius and travel 50 miles.
*I use utlilization in place of thermo efficiency in hopes of clarify at the expense of unit accuracy.
